SACRAMENTO, Calif.—Joined by sex trafficking survivors, law enforcement officials, a bipartisan group of fellow lawmakers, and representatives from the trucking industry focused on stopping the crime, California Sen. Shannon Grove announced a plan to recognize January 2024 as National Human Trafficking Awareness Month during a press conference on the steps of the Capitol Jan. 25.

“We introduced this resolution to make sure that communities are aware of what’s going on and parents are aware about how to educate your families and loved ones to avoid this dark underworld,” Ms. Grove told The Epoch Times after the press conference.
