JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. – The Missouri House of Representatives has given its approval to anti-sex trafficking legislation seeking to provide greater protections for children who have been victimized by sex trafficking. The House on Wednesday third read and passed Rep. Ed Lewis' HB 2032 with a unanimous 140-0 vote, sending a clear message that sexual exploitation of children will not be tolerated in the Show-Me State, and further providing for the safety of children in Missouri. "This legislation is important simply because of what it does for the child." Rep. Ed Lewis, R-Moberly, said. "This bill focuses on protecting children under the age of 18 who have been trafficked ensuring they are treated as a victim and getting them the help they need while cracking down on those who would facilitate the exploitation of a child. By passing this legislation, Missouri defends its children while also saying that trafficking of any kind will not be tolerated in our state."
