Sex Trafficking Demand Reduction Act

In CommitteeFiled May 26, 2026
Sponsor: Rep. Wagner, Ann [R-MO-2] (R)
Latest Action

Referred to the House Committee on Foreign Affairs.

May 26, 2026

Summary

The bill changes the 2000 Trafficking Victims Protection Act to require that, when the U.S. evaluates a foreign country’s anti‑sex‑trafficking record, it look at three specific actions: whether the country bans or discourages buying sex, whether it educates buyers about trafficking, and whether it works to lower international sex‑tourism by its own citizens. This affects how the U.S. rates foreign governments for compliance with anti‑trafficking standards, which can influence diplomatic and aid decisions.
