Interview: Stephanie Davis, Georgia Women for a Change, Fights for Anti-Trafficking Bill

House Bill 200, a comprehensive anti-trafficking bill in Georgia, passed through the House today, 168-1. It is now headed to the Senate. This bill has the potential to make a dramatic difference in how sex trafficking and labor exploitation is combated in the state. Stephanie Davis, the executive director of Georgia Women for a Change, agreed to speak with Change.org about the legislation, which her organization introduced. Previously, Davis worked as a Policy Advisor on women’s issues to Mayor Shirley Franklin, and as CEO of the Atlanta Women’s Foundation, where she helped pass a law that made the pimping and pandering of children a felony.
