FORMAL PROPOSAL
Introduction
I became a student at the university back in 2010 and I was interested in nursing and psychology. Both these fields of studies required me to take two English classes and English W132 was one of them. I knew it was going to be similar to W131 but not as hard. When one hears about a writing class, they do not think that it can be very time consuming and involving a lot of research work and studying. Human trafficking has been a major social injustice and also considered to be a heinous crime. We as people have come in contact with a person who is a victim but we do not recognize that that person is being held captive and used as a slave laborer. Human trafficking is not allowed in the
There are some laws that have been put in place to stop this type of social injustice but not enforced effectively. At this time, the question at issue is not whether the United States has done enough to stop the trade of humans but simply “Should the United States do more to combat human trafficking?” I came up with this question after reading a lot of literature on human trafficking and finding out that it is still an ongoing issue which has never been abolished. We are in the 21st. century and have not yet found a solution to combat human trade which is a heinous crime against humanity. After researching a lot on this topic and doing some soul searching, I decided to take the following position; human trafficking should be illegal because it’s a grave social injustice against humanity.
To back up this claim of policy, I took to the internet to make myself more familiar with the issue. There were a lot of journal articles that were discussing the different ways that the government has tried to stop human trafficking but most of them were concluding that the laws were not tough enough and that some government officials were involved in the trade. Human trafficking is the worst crime that can be committed by anyone because it denies a person the right to freedom and equality making it a grave social
I believe that we all share the same assumption that human trafficking should be illegal because it is a heinous crime against humanity while denying them the rights and freedom that are supposed to enhance their well-being. The victims undergo cruel and unfair treatment which none of us can imagine going through and for this reason, I intend to persuade my audience that my paper is relevant and credible. It is going to have clear reasons to back up my claim from all the research work I have conducted. My audience will need to answer the question of whether the government has already done enough to stop human trafficking. I need to be careful when talking about the laws enacted because I will be addressing this issue happening in the United States even if I am only a permanent resident instead of being a citizen. Some of my audience members might feel like I am interfering with their governmental policies and I am not even originally from here. I also need to make my paper easy to read and straight to the point instead of trying to make them search for the hidden
