Human trafficking is a human rights violation of epidemic proportion. Trafficking places individuals in extremely vulnerable circumstances where their basic human rights are violated, including the rights to life, liberty, personal security, privacy, mental and physical integrity, freedom from slavery, and freedom from torture and other forms of inhumane or degrading treatment.
It is not right to victimize vulnerable women as sex objects. Yet, America has allowed women to become human trafficking victims. How many are in the United States? We do not know because the United States is not on the Human Trafficking tier system. We are one of the only countries that are not. See The Protection Project's Review of the US Department of State Office to Monitor and Combat Trafficking in Persons 2006 Trafficking in Persons Report at http://protectionproject.org/docs/Final_collection.pdf
What makes this country different from any other country? It is going on right here in the open sight of The People. Legislation, U.S. Government Representatives, Federal and State Judges are doing nothing to enforce laws already on the books. And, victims are not being compensated for pain and suffering for the abuse.

SUMMARY
Two basic admissibility criteria have existed since the procedure was created in 1970, and they must remain unchanged:
that there be a “consistent pattern of gross and reliably attested violations of human rights and fundamental freedoms”; and that “domestic remedies must have been exhausted before a communication is considered - unless it can be shown convincingly that solutions at the national level would be ineffective or that they would extend over an unreasonable length of time.”
