Child trafficking

Each year, more than 2 million children are trafficked for forced labor or sexual exploitation. The Trafficking Victims Protection Act (TVPA) of 2000 is the cornerstone of U.S. policies against modern-day slavery. Because the methods of human trafficking are constantly evolving, the law must evolve with them. That is why the TVPA must be renewed every few years. Each time the bill has been renewed, innovations and improvements were added to the original legislation. The current version of TVPA expires on September 30, 2011. Ask your members of Congress to support the TVPA reauthorization.

Extreme global poverty, hunger, and disease

The International Affairs budget (which is just 1.4 percent of the total federal budget) provides critical, life-saving assistance to combat extreme global poverty, hunger and disease. Ask Congres to protect this part of the budget from drastic cuts. There are few places in the U.S. federal budget where dollars translate so directly into lives saved.
