The resolution recognizes January 2025 as "National Slavery and Human Trafficking Prevention Month" in the State of Rhode Island. It highlights the grave issue of human trafficking, which affects an estimated 27.6 million people globally, particularly women and children, and generates significant profits for traffickers. The resolution references the United Nations' definition of human trafficking and the various forms of exploitation involved, including forced labor and sexual exploitation.

Additionally, the resolution notes the progress made since the observance of National Slavery and Human Trafficking Prevention Month began in January 2018, including the substantial financial contributions made to combat human trafficking. It emphasizes the importance of international collaboration among nations, law enforcement, and community organizations to dismantle criminal networks involved in trafficking. The resolution concludes by directing the Secretary of State to transmit certified copies to key officials, including the President of the United States and the Secretary-General of the United Nations.
