Presidential Platform
Human trafficking is a $150 billion industry, yet the U.S. government only invests $150 million a year to fight it. Traffickers make 1,000 times more in profits off this heinous crime then we spend fighting them in a year.
That’s not a fair fight.
Join us in calling on President Trump to commit just two cents for every dollar in profits traffickers make to fight human trafficking. That would yield a $3 billion annual budget to invest in programs that have proven to prevent human trafficking, punish offenders, and provide support and services to survivors.

Sign the Petition to President Trump
Dear President Trump: The next President of the United States has an historic opportunity to bring the fight to traffickers all around the world and free millions from modern slavery.
That’s why I’m calling on you to make the Generation Freedom platform a priority for your Administration, including a commitment to investing $3 billion in annual anti-trafficking efforts.
I am part of Generation Freedom — and you should be, too.
Meet Kevin
After noticing a man traveling back and forth from the convenience store to an RV, truck driver Kevin noticed the RV begin to rock, and a young woman was trying to stick her head out the window, only to have it violently snapped back and a black curtain pulled in its place. Kevin made a phone call on January 6th that resulted in the recovery of the 20-year old from Clive, Iowa who had been tortured and trafficked. Moreover, both of her traffickers were sentenced to 40 and 41 years in prison. With two cents for freedom, more first responders can be trained to identify victims.
Meet Ameena
Ameena Saeed Hasan is Yezidi Kurd, and every day she and her husband take calls from Yezidi women captured and enslaved by ISIL. With very little support, they operate a hotline and arrange opportunities to remove these women from their captors. Ameena believes there are more than 3,000 women still enslaved and in need of immediate assistance. With two cents for freedom, people like Ameena will receive funding to continue operations and enhance rescue operations.
The Time is Now
There are more people enslaved today than any time in history
There are more than 20 million victims of human trafficking around the world. They are boys and girls, men and women, exploited for labor or commercial sex. Slavery is illegal in every country in the world, but cases of forced labor and sex trafficking are found all around the globe, including in all 50 states and territories in the United States. Eradicating modern day slavery is not something any individual or organization can do alone. But together, with bold and sustained Presidential leadership, this is a fight we can win.
