Stats show, that OVER 300,000 children are exposed to sex trafficking every year, most occur online! President Trump signed the 'Allow States and Victims to Fight Online Sex Trafficking Act of 2017' the bill will guarantee that websites displaying sex trafficking can be prosecuted!
Senator Rob Portman, who helped pass the bill stated, "This is a momentous day in the fight to help stop online sex trafficking, and a big victory for trafficking victims and survivors who for too long have been denied the opportunity to get the justice they deserve. We wouldn’t have gotten to this point without the bravery of the sex trafficking victims and their families who shared their stories, the work of anti-trafficking advocates who helped us craft a narrowly-tailored solution, and a broad coalition of support that was unwavering its commitment to getting this done. I’d particularly like to thank Senators Thune, Blumenthal, McCain, McCaskill, Cornyn, and Heitkamp for their leadership and hard work on this effort. No one thought that we could get this done, but we did. SESTA will make an difference in the lives of sex trafficking survivors. Justice for these victims is long overdue.” Trump stated, "Most importantly, I want to thank the survivors and families who join us today. I’m signing this bill in your honor. And we are all together politicians, both Republican and Democrat signing this and representing this to you in your honor. So thank you all very much. We very much appreciate it. You’re very brave. You’ve endured what no person on Earth should ever have to endure, and we are going to do everything in our power to make sure that traffickers are brought to a swift and firm justice. And I’ve heard statistics where trafficking in the world is more now than it ever has been ever in the history of the world. And you wouldn’t believe that with, you know, modern-day everything. But they use modern-day better than law enforcement can use modern-day, whether it’s the Internet or anything else. And you wouldn’t believe that. But trafficking, it’s probably worse today than at any time in history. So I want to thank you for your courage, and thank you for helping survivors across our country. And you are not alone. You are not alone. And this is a very important day. If we work together, we can get the criminal traffickers off our streets and off of the Internet. We can bring safety and hope to every community across the country, and we can create a culture that respects the dignity of every child of God."
