Combating Trafficking in Transportation Act
This bill requires the installation of human trafficking awareness signs at rest stops and welcome centers along interstate highways. It adds a new project category to federal transportation funding programs specifically for procuring and installing these signs. The bill also expands a Department of Transportation advisory committee to include state transportation departments, mandating their appointment within 9 months of enactment. These changes directly affect state transportation agencies managing rest stops and travelers using interstate highway facilities.
