HU’s Melysa Sperber, Director of the Alliance to End Slavery and Trafficking, was requested to testify today before the subcommittee on Africa, Global Health, Global Human Rights, and International Organizations at the House Committee on Foreign Affairs. Melysa testified about the importance of prevention in addressing human trafficking and labor exploitation.
“We must not rest on the mistaken assumption that our work is complete. It is time for Congress and the Administration to get serious about anti-trafficking prevention legislation that can truly transform vulnerability into hope.”
