Here are just a few of the tangible recommendations we’ve made to Congress to meet these priorities head on:
► Pass the Trafficking Survivors Relief Act, providing federal criminal record relief to survivors who committed a crime as a result of being trafficked.
► Increase funding to enforce existing labor laws and hold traffickers accountable for violations.
► Sufficiently fund the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) at the U.S. Department of the Treasury to develop a beneficial database mandated by the Anti-Money Laundering Act of 2020.
► Fund more services that help survivors thrive — including legal services, housing, health care and mental health care, child care, and employment training and support.
On all of these issues, your legislators answer to you. They need to hear your voice!
