Representative Spencer Wetmore of Charleston discusses her infrastructure bill to help cities manage growth, DEI and human trafficking

Charleston Representative Spencer Wetmore joined “Backbone” podcast host Frank Knapp and talks about her infrastructure bill to give a tool to local governments to better manage growth prior to issuing construction permits. Giving local government the ability to build needed infrastructure, as her bill would do, prior to anticipated growth is critical. Representative Wetmore also talks about her concern on how filed legislation on diversity, equity and inclusion would negatively impact private businesses. Human trafficking is also a growing problem and she has a bill to include training medical professionals how to identify patients as being trafficked and what they can do.
