A bill to toughen Indiana's penalties for sex trafficking is on its way to Gov. Mitch Daniels for him to sign into law
ahead of next weekend's Super Bowl in Indianapolis.
The Indiana House voted 93-0 Friday morning in favor of the bill that cleared the state Senate in a 48-0 vote earlier this
month.
The governor had asked legislators to approve the tougher measures so they could be used in any Super Bowl-related cases
Prosecutors and other supporters say the bill would make it easier to prosecute sex trafficking cases involving victims younger
than 16 and broaden the law for cases with older victims. The bill makes recruiting, transporting or harboring anyone younger
than 16 for prostitution a felony punishable by 20 years to 50 years in prison.

J, have you tried the Angie's List service? I think you'll be able to answer your own question in the affirmative relative to AL's ability to remain relevant given whatever current competition exists. You know what you get when hiring a contractor because of the integrity of the members and that far out weighs the small annual fee (that can be billed monthly).

I have seen hundreds of their commercials and to date I have not used them once. Maybe its because the concept is wrong time, wrong place? No idea. I just know that everything is marketing and this typebusiness never had a for holdand likely will never.
