"this is not a pretty topic and a lot of people, particularly Americans, do not like to think about it"

"If we are to finally eradicate modern slavery once and for all, it will require significant additional resources and sustained cooperation within the international community."

"Ultimately, when foreign countries see a serious and sustained commitment from the United States it often compels them to consider and make real policy changes."

"This issue is so terrible and so heart-wrenching and so compelling that a lot of times some of us would rather talk about more pleasant things."
