California lawmaker's bill would create health standards for fashion models
2016
Overview
Opponents of [Marc Levine]'s bill include a number of modeling agencies, as well as the Association of Talent Agents. That group argues that it is committed to promoting the health and well-being of all models, but that the bill \"creates major disruption and legal confusion for state licensed talent agencies, doesn't resolve the real issue, and is unworkable.\" [James Lock] said that the impact of those images doesn't always lead to eating disorders. \"But,\" he said, \"they do create anxiety around appearance that makes someone vulnerable to more likely adopt behaviors that are unhealthy, like severe dieting and over-exercising, and binging and purging.\" Contact Tracy Seipel at 408-920-5343.
