Legislation requiring state officials to produce a detailed annual report about child sex trafficking victims will be heard by a Missouri House committee Monday afternoon in Jefferson City.
House Bill 2032 from State Rep. Ed Lewis (R-Moberly) would require the state Department of Social Services (DSS) to issue a report to the state Department of Public Safety (DPS) and the attorney general’s office each January.
Under Lewis’ bill, that report would include the number of child sex trafficking victims during the previous year, the name of the organization each victim was told to contact and an annual update on each child victim.
