AG Jennings leads bipartisan coalition of 40 attorneys general seeking stronger efforts against human trafficking

Published Date: Apr 15, 2025

AG Kathy Jennings and Mississippi AG Lynn Fitch are leading a bipartisan coalition of 40 state and territory attorneys general in a letter urging Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. to require better cooperation with local law enforcement from the next operator of the National Human Trafficking Hotline. “Human trafficking victims can’t afford to wait while an operator decides their case is worthy,” said Attorney General Kathy Jennings (D-DE). “People who call a publicly funded reporting hotline deserve to know that their reports are making it to law enforcement. Polaris’ failure to carry out that mission is unacceptable. This is a bipartisan priority, and we’re asking DHHS to be our partner in protecting victims and finding traffickers before they can cover their tracks. We need to fix this — and we need to fix it now.”
