   Sponsored by -- M.  of A. COLTON, GRAF -- read once  and  referred  to

 AN  ACT  to  amend  the  alcoholic  beverage control law, in relation to
   promoting the education  of  the  human  trafficking  information  and
   referral hotlines to assist individuals from becoming or freeing them-
   selves from any act of severe forms of sex trafficking
 
   THE  PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND ASSEM-
 BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:
 
   Section 1. Legislative findings. Presently, there is no law  requiring
 wine  and  beer  establishments  to  post  a  notification regarding the
 offense of human trafficking. About 80 percent  of  trafficking  victims
 are  often  forced  into  the sex-slave trade industry. In many of these
 cases, women and men are forced to be hosts or servers in establishments
 that serve alcohol in bars or entertainment clubs. Furthermore, outreach
 services are widely unknown to victims of trafficking.   The purpose  of
 this  act  is  to  promote  the education of the federal toll free human
 trafficking referral hotlines.
   § 2. The alcoholic beverage control law is amended  by  adding  a  new
 section 65-e to read as follows:
   §  65-E.  POSTING  OF  SIGNS  RELATING  TO HUMAN TRAFFICKING.   1. THE
 AUTHORITY SHALL PREPARE, PRINT AND DISTRIBUTE ACROSS THE  STATE  TO  ANY
 PERSON, CORPORATION, PARTNERSHIP, OR OTHER BUSINESS ESTABLISHMENT WITH A
