TVPRA Update

Today (Wednesday, October 5), the U.S. House Committee on Foreign Affairs unanimously passed the TVPRA (Trafficking Victims Protection Re-authorization Act)! After not even being on the docket last week, the bill was fast-tracked on Monday. Thanks came from Chairman Ileana Ros-Lehtinen to those "who took this unseen issue and made it a top priority."

The bill now moves on to the full House and could be voted on by the Senate committee as early as tomorrow.
