Human trafficking remains a problem in Nebraska that lawmakers again are being asked to address.
Attorney General Doug Peterson says despite legislation and investigations, the problem of trafficking youth for sex or labor continues. . .
One bill asks for a half-million-dollar appropriation to provide services to the victims and, despite a difficult budget year, Senator Patty Pansing Brooks of Lincoln says legislators need to take the proposal seriously. . .
Pansing Brooks is sponsoring a bill which would allow courts to impose financial punishment against traffickers and buyers.
