Reauthorization Act'.
SEC. 2. FINDINGS.
Congress finds the following:
(1) Trafficking in persons continues to victimize countless men, women,
and children in the United States and abroad.
(2) Since the enactment of the Trafficking Victims Protection Act of 2000
(22 U.S.C. 7101 et seq.), the United States Government has made significant
progress in investigating and prosecuting acts of trafficking and in responding
to the needs of victims of trafficking in the United States and abroad.
(3) On the other hand, victims of trafficking have faced unintended obstacles
in the process of securing needed assistance, including admission to the
United States under section 101(a)(15)(T)(i) of the Immigration and Nationality
Act.
(4) Additional research is needed to fully understand the phenomenon of
trafficking in persons and to determine the most effective strategies for
combating trafficking in persons.
(5) Corruption among foreign law enforcement authorities continues to undermine
the efforts by governments to investigate, prosecute, and convict traffickers.
(6) International Law Enforcement Academies should be more fully utilized
in the effort to train law enforcement authorities, prosecutors, and members
of the judiciary to address trafficking in persons-related crimes.
