Fil-Am Attorney General Shares Fight vs Human Trafficking
UTAH – Filipino American Attorney General Sean Reyes is in Washington, D.C. to combat human trafficking.
Reyes testified Thursday before Congress on an undercover child trafficking sting operation he was a part of last October in an effort to advance H.R. 515, a law that would create a notification system among countries about suspected child trafficking.
Last October, Reyes joined Operation Underground Railroad to rescue 54 children from a child trafficking cartel in Colombia.
“Having witnessed such atrocities with my own eyes last October, I can tell you this deplorable multibillion-dollar industry continues to flourish and must be stopped,” he said.
