HRES 893 United States House · 117th Congress

Supporting the observation of National Trafficking and Modern Slavery Prevention Month during the period beginning on January 1, 2022, and ending on February 1, 2022, to raise awareness of, and opposition to, human trafficking and modern slavery.

HRES 893 is a non-binding House resolution designating January 1 to February 1, 2022, as "National Trafficking and Modern Slavery Prevention Month." It urges the public, government agencies, and organizations to raise awareness about human trafficking through educational programs and activities during this period. The resolution does not create new laws or allocate funds - it is a symbolic measure to promote existing anti-trafficking efforts and partnerships. It directly affects all U.S. citizens by encouraging nationwide awareness, but it has no legal force or direct impact on specific groups.
