Sound the trumpets!! Da-dee-da-daaaaa. Da-dee-da-daaaa. Paul Ryan's former driver and hand-picked clone, Bryan Steil, organized a photo opportunity with area officials and ranking law enforcement officers to help him announce his first piece of House legislation.
His bill, touted as tackling human traffic within his district's communities, doesn't send more federal dollars to help local agencies battle the crisis. Instead, his bill purports to penalize foreign countries that don't do enough to prevent international human trafficking. Or something.
So what's the issue? For starters, there is no issue. At least not in Wisconsin's First Congressional District. Local law officers and city employees appearing with Steil could not name even one case in their jurisdictions related to Steil's legislation. So why were they there if they had no cause or effect for issue advocacy?
They were there for Bryan Steil and his first act as congressman. The candidate and incumbent.
The only thing missing from his support group were Bryan Steil For Congress tee-shirts.
We cannot turn a blind eye to human trafficking. Joined law enforcement in Janesville to talk about my bill, H.R. 2149, the Exposing the Financing of Human Trafficking Act which currently has 17 bipartisan cosponsors. Read more, here: https://t.co/huingI9cYm pic.twitter.com/zkDT9aTz04
