Preventing Human Trafficking
June 26, 2017I am proud that last year Connecticut became the first state to require hotel workers to be trained in detecting and reporting human trafficking. Connecticut is serving as a model and a leader for states around the country fighting this horrific crime.
The law requires that employees at the more than 500 hotels, motels and lodges in the state must receive anti-trafficking training by Oct. 1.
I supported this law as it made its way through the House and will continue to fight against this illegal activity.
I invite you to read this article about how Connecticut is helping to prevent human trafficking.
