Kids shouldn't be on the national news for this

http://convio.motherjones.com/site/R?i=1RxdZeKmCCAs-dJlpptfaw

All over the country, newspaper
headlines are shattering the public's perception of sex
trafficking. It's not just an international
problem-it's happening in our own backyards...every
single day.

Human trafficking is a $9.8 billion
dollar industry in the U.S., and the FBI estimates that as many as
100,000 kids are forced into prostitution every year. Many of these
kids are homeless, and that makes them especially vulnerable to
exploitation and manipulation.

We must come together and address
this national problem-and we must do it soon.

Take the Pledge
