Protecting Federal Funds from Human Trafficking and Smuggling Act of 2025
This bill requires all non-profit organizations receiving federal funds to certify they comply with federal laws against human trafficking, alien smuggling, fraud, and bribery. Non-profits must submit this certification within 60-120 days of the law's enactment or risk repayment of funds and loss of tax-exempt status. The Department of Homeland Security must create compliance guides for non-profits and publish violation data online. Annual reports to Congress will track non-profit compliance failures related to these requirements.
