BLADE STAFF <\/p>\n
The League of Women Voters of the Perrysburg Area is bringing a discussion on human trafficking to town Tuesday evening. <\/p>\n
State Rep. Teresa Fedor (D., Toledo), legislative sponsor of two Ohio human-trafficking laws, will lead the discussion at the Way Public Library starting at 7 p.m. The program is free and open to the public. <\/p>\n
Ms. Fedor sits on the Human Trafficking Commission as chairman of its legislative and legal subcommittee. <\/p>\n
Legislation she sponsored, enacted in 2009, created a penalty enhancement for human trafficking and created a task force to study the problem in Ohio. Human trafficking in 2010 became a stand-alone, second-degree felony. <\/p>\n
In 2012, she sponsored the Safe Harbor Act, which established harsher penalties for the solicitation of minors. <\/p>\n
The library also will show the film Blade Runner at 5:30 p.m. Tuesday in the Mercy Family Activity Center, with a book-club discussion afterward. Admission and refreshments are free of charge, no registration is required, and copies of the book upon which the film was based will be available for checkout. <\/p>\n
