Quiver AI Summary
U.S. Senators John Cornyn and Amy Klobuchar have introduced the Enduring Justice for Victims of Trafficking Act, aimed at permanently extending criminal penalties for human traffickers. The legislative change seeks to correct a technical error in existing law, specifically removing the sunset clause from penalties requiring offenders to pay fines that support the Domestic Trafficking Victims Fund.
Senator Cornyn emphasized the need for accountability, stating, "It is only right and just for vile predators... to be penalized." Senator Klobuchar added that the bill aims to ensure essential services for survivors and to enhance law enforcement resources, reflecting over a decade of bipartisan efforts in addressing trafficking.
Since its inception, the Domestic Trafficking Victims Fund has amassed over $100 million, with nearly $9 million raised in 2024 alone. The fund directly supports survivors and anti-trafficking initiatives, underscoring the bill's intent to bolster support systems for vulnerable individuals.
