Congratulations to Barbera H. Thornhill, the new US Ambassador-at-Large to Monitor and Combat Trafficking in Persons. Human trafficking is a direct assault on the values of freedom and dignity that define America. The Trump Administration will use all available tools to fight traffickers and their enablers and bring them to justice.

Assistant Secretary Riley Barnes Verified account @StateDRL Oct 13

Ambassador Thornhill, welcome to the team. I’m proud to have such a dedicated leader join us as Ambassador-at-Large to Monitor and Combat Trafficking in Persons. Human trafficking is a grave human rights issue and a transnational crime exploiting men, women, and children for profit. We will continue to go after traffickers, protect survivors, and deliver justice for the American people.
