Congress passed the Victims of Trafficking and Violence Protection Act of 2000 (VTVPA) in order to provide:

* individuals who have been victimized in the most severe fashion with the ability to: remain in the US (temporarily and in some cases longer) and receive federal and state assistance;

* protections for certain crime victims including victims of crimes against women; and

* law enforcement agencies with a comprehensive law that will enable them to pursue the prosecution and conviction of traffickers.

This Webpage includes various agency links to information about the VTVPA, implementation of the law, and victim benefits and services.

Those who may be interested in this information include:

* victims of a severe form of trafficking and non-governmental entities who may be working with such victims;

* law enforcement officers so that they may better understand who is considered a victim of a severe form of trafficking; and

* the general public on how the US Government will pursue traffickers of persons.

"The fact that we are here today to debate raising America’s debt limit is a sign of leadership failure. It is a sign that the U.S. Government can’t pay its own bills. It is a sign that we now depend on ongoing financial assistance from foreign countries to finance our Government’s reckless fiscal policies."
