Below is a link to an article from Polaris, one of the most authoritative sources on human trafficking (modern slavery), signed by leaders of organizations like A21, various human trafficking task forces, and many survivors of human trafficking.

An Open Letter from Trafficking Survivors to Presidential Candidates
May we never stop hoping & praying for an end to this cruel industry, awareness of its harms, and a radical change of heart for all those who exploit others!

"Deliver the oppressed from their oppressors;
right judgment should not be repugnant to you.
Be like a father to orphans,
and take the place of a husband to widows.
Then God will call you his child,
and he will be merciful to you and deliver you from the pit." --Sirach 4
"So for one who knows the right thing to do and does not do it, it is a sin." --James 4
