Human trafficking is modern day slavery. Annually 14,000-17,000 men, women and children are trafficked across our borders to be sold as slaves and exploited in the commercial sex trade and bonded labor. Within the U.S, 100,000 children mostly girls are captured and sold into the sex trade.
Congress do not let partisan woes stop us from prosecuting human traffickers and protecting human trafficking victims. Vote Yes on S.1301 Trafficking Victims Protection Reauthorization Act 2011.
Why is this important?
S. 1301 Trafficking Victims Protection Reauthorization provides for appropriations to vital programs and services that have successfully prevented trafficking, enhanced prosecution of its perpetrators, and protected and served the needs of the human trafficking survivors.
