1-14-19 thiesfeldt introduces human trafficking bill

todayJanuary 13, 2019

Fond du Lac Republican state representative Jeremy Thiesfeldt is circulating a bill focusing on over the road truckers to help crack down on human trafficking.  Thiesfeldt  says the Trucker Education Bill will implement a human trafficking teaching component for all new truck drivers in Wisconsin.  Thiesfeldt says it makes sense to teach truckers about the signs of human trafficking when there are many more truck drivers on the roads than law enforcement.  Thiesfeldt says the bill would give truck drivers the tools and information they need to help combat human trafficking.  Democratic senator LaTonya Johnson is introducing a companion bill in the senate.
