Summary

A nationally recognized expert in human trafficking and the President of GUARD Against Trafficking, Ali Hopper, breaks down the trafficking and child labor problem in the United States. She describes who is at risk, diving into why this issue continues to go undiscussed. Later, Ali shares a personal rescue story of how she and her business partner recovered a mother and son following a trafficking incident. She explains that enormous numbers of people are trafficked into the United States, specifically by cartels working on the U.S. southern border, who are biding their time until President Trump is out of office, hoping the border opens once again.
