SIGN OUR PETITION. SHOW YOUR CONCERN TO GOVERNMENT TO ACT NOW. Fill out your name and email address, and click submit to send an email to your United States Senators and United States Representatives. 1. Write to your legislators and tell them how you feel about human trafficking. 2. Governments should place child labor issues on the agenda of every bilateral meeting. Each country needs to be forced to defend its human right records. Non-compliant countries should be obliged to answer to the international community. 3. Ask your legislators to enforced laws for product labeling around the world that ensures that no child labor or child slavery occurs in the production or distribution of their products. 4. Insist that the United States keep its promised to give 0.7 per cent of its gross national product (GNP) as development aid to poorest countries to reduce the wealth gap between rich and poor countries. 5. Employers, governments and international institutions to provide decent jobs for adults and respect the right of workers, and no childen hired by employer. You can make a difference.

The growth in interest regarding this petition has reached a level that requires a formal review of our strategy. I am currently finalizing a briefing document to send to the offices of key legislators to initiate official discussions on these policy proposals.

so glad someone is finally screaming about this. we need strict laws and we need them yesterday. slavery still existing in 2016 is just unbelievable.
