Ronny Marty is a labor trafficking survivor and member of the U.S. In some ways, I consider myself a "blessed" survivor of labor trafficking in the U.S. because my ordeal was relatively short. Investigations are critical to ensuring that employers are not engaging in human trafficking when they hire seasonal, low income or temporary workers. Our report also recommends that Congress act to remove age restrictions that prohibit trafficking survivors from receiving critical employment assistance. All survivors have faced the fear and stigma that comes with modern slavery, and recognize the signs of human trafficking.
