The bill strengthens the international framework for combating human trafficking, which indirectly benefits trafficking victims who may enter the U.S. without documentation. By pressuring foreign governments and multilateral banks to address trafficking risks, fewer people may be trafficked across borders. The bill also preserves humanitarian assistance even when other aid is cut off from countries with poor trafficking records.
