Following Bombshell Report, April Becker Must Answer Questions on Her Businesses’ Ties to Prostitution

One week ago, Fox News released a bombshell report uncovering NV-03 candidate April Becker’s disturbing ties to prostitution and exploitation in Las Vegas.

Becker has long served as executive director of her family business, Becker Enterprises, which was caught leasing its properties to massage parlors listed on RubMaps, a website described as “Yelp for sex spas” and that is deeply linked to sex trafficking and exploitation.

The Fox News report lists several recent reviews from RubMaps users who describe, in detail, engaging in sex acts with employees of the parlors Becker’s business leases to.

In light of these disturbing allegations, here are four questions April Becker must answer:

  • Is Becker confident that no illegal prostitution has occurred in the businesses she rents to?

  • How does Becker account for her tenants’ years and years of explicit reviews on RubMaps?

  • Has Becker terminated the leases of companies connected to alleged illegal prostitution?

  • If it turns out illegal prostitution did occur, will Becker commit to donating income collected from these businesses to an anti-trafficking group?

DCCC Spokesperson Johanna Warshaw
“It’s time for April Becker to come clean on what she knew about her tenants’ ties to prostitution and when.”
