Silas, you are correct, they must FIRST filea complaint with Cal OSHA AND Cal OSHA must fail to investigate (which they are required by law to do….The whole idea that people will be suing pornstars left and right is ludicrous

It’s been a while since I read Prop 60 so I could be way off here, but I’m curious regarding the lawsuits…Based on what people in porn are saying it seems like anyone can sue at random, but I was under the impression that people can only sue after filing a complaint to OSHA and OSHA not doing anything about said complaint?

If anything surprised, or disappointed, me about the article it wasn’t the reporting and analysis – damn, she was good. It’s that no A-lister was quoted, only performers I’ve never heard of. I’d liked to have heard from a Jesse, Julia Ann, Phoenix Marie, Kayden, James Deen, Manuel, Kieren Lee or Johnny Castle standing up for the industry in that part of the piece.

EXACTLY BT I spent HOURS on the phone with Katie for this piece she worked hard to get it right and I think it shows. I am also VERY excited about Shawna Lenee her attitude and work ethic are amazing, I think she is gonna be a rock star.

It highlights something I’ve written on your site for the last couple of years. The greatest threat to the porn industry is not the LA County law, or even Prop 60 should it pass. It’s OSHA. Should that agency decide to crack down, the porn industry cannot escape condom use by moving to Arizona. On the other hand, as long as OSHA chooses to sit on the sidelines, porn probably doesn’t have a lot to concern itself with because LA County seems not to have much interest in enforcing the regulation and my guess is that neither will the state of California. I understand the concern that now any Jo Schmo would have standing to file a suit in court, but I think that’s unlikely to happen. I can see AHF doing so.
