AUSTIN – TxDOT is raising awareness about the dangers of human trafficking and working with other state agencies to help stop this horrific crime.
During National Human Trafficking Prevention Month in January, TxDOT is continuing its “On the Road to End Human Trafficking” campaign and working with other state agencies through the Texas Human Trafficking Prevention Coordinating Council and the Texas Human Trafficking Prevention Task Force. The Texas Legislature passed SB1527 in 2023, which added TxDOT to both groups.
“In the fight against human trafficking, it takes all of us working together,” TxDOT Executive Director Marc Williams said. "We’re empowering our people to be on the lookout to spot the signs of human trafficking and with more than 13,000 employees across the state, we can make a difference.”
