On June 29, 2011, a bill called the Trafficking Victims Protection Reauthorization Act (TVPRA) was introduced in the U.S. Senate by Senators Leahy (VT), Brown (MA), Kerry (MA), Boxer (CA), Cardin (MD), and Wyden (OR).
Your voice matters. Take one minute NOW to urge your Senators to co-sponsor the TVPRA.
This bi-partisan legislation is critical - it will renew the Trafficking Victims Protection Act of 2000, which established the State Department Office to Monitor and Combat Trafficking in Persons, authorized the annual Trafficking in Persons report, and established human trafficking as a punishable crime here in the U.S.
Abolitionists around the country are calling on Congress to pass the TVPRA quickly. Will you join us? Thank you for your support!
Gratefully,
