Students with state senatorMounds Park Academy Seniors Pranay Somayajula and Kate Van Hecke met with State Senator Chuck Wiger last week to seek (and receive!) his co-authorship for a bill that they and Ryan Guggenheim, Alayna Fox, Sierra Klein, and Nashad Mahamoud are writing for their senior service project.

The bill allocates $700,000 over two years to the Department of Public Safety for statewide training of law enforcement on the issue of labor trafficking and how to combat it. These students are dreaming big and doing right and we are so proud of them.
