Campaign to Require Porn Actors to Wear Condoms Gains Ground

The L.A. Times reports:
In response to pressure from AIDS Healthcare Foundation officials, state regulators are poised to consider amending state law to require condom use in adult film production.

On Thursday, the California Division of Occupational Safety and Health standards board is scheduled to consider a petition the foundation filed in December to change state law and require condom use and other safe sex protections for adult-film workers, including increased safety training and testing for sexually transmitted diseases.
It appears California is willing to risk losing the adult film industry.
