A bill to amend the Trafficking Victims Protection Act of 2000 to make technical corrections.
S 1155 amends the Trafficking Victims Protection Act of 2000 to correct outdated reference numbers in Section 103. It updates two specific provisions (paragraphs 16 and 17) by replacing references to outdated subsections (9, 10) with current ones (11, 12). This technical correction ensures legal documents and enforcement actions accurately cite the correct sections of the law. The bill does not change protections or programs for trafficking survivors but maintains clarity in how the law is applied. It directly affects legal references within the TVPA framework and related government documents.
