Polaris Project, September 13, 2006.

The U.S. Policy Alert System, a regular email notification system, provides a snapshot of current legislative activity and legislative developments related to human trafficking within the United States.  Information contained within U.S. Policy Alerts is developed and compiled by Polaris Project through correspondence with legislative offices and online research, as well as in partnership with local advocacy groups, local organizations, and grassroots volunteers.
