S. 178, The Justice for Victims of Trafficking Act

Bipartisan S. 178, The Justice for Victims of Trafficking Act, has now been signed into law by President Obama.

Bipartisan S. 178, The Justice for Victims of Trafficking Act works to fight human trafficking by reducing demand for sex trafficking, providing more services for victims, depriving convicted offenders of criminal assets and using forfeited assets to satisfy restitution orders for victims, and giving law enforcement more and better tools to fight sex trafficking.
