Greg Heartsill

Representative Greg Heartsill spoke at the Preventing Abuse Conference in Cedar Rapids last month.

Heartsill focused his talk on what the Iowa Legislature did this year to combat human trafficking and the sexual exploitation of children. During the 2014 legislative session, Heartsill managed legislation that toughened the penalties on human traffickers and violent sexual predators.

The Preventing Abuse Conference focused on protecting women and children from the evils of human trafficking and abduction.
