Latest action on S. 2647: Read twice and referred to the Committee on Foreign Relations.

Who this affects: This bill mainly affects people at risk of trafficking, foreign governments, U.S. aid programs, and domestic workers employed by foreign officials in the United States. It could change how aid projects are planned in crisis zones and high-risk countries. It also gives Congress more information about country rankings, aid waivers, and anti-trafficking results.

Why this matters: Human trafficking often grows where people have little protection, especially after disasters, during conflict, or in low-wage work. This bill tries to build anti-trafficking checks into U.S. aid, development projects, and diplomacy. It could expand prevention and victim services, but the real effect would depend on how strictly U.S. agencies apply the rules and how other countries respond.

Key provisions in S. 2647

• The bill would authorize $17 million each year for certain anti-trafficking work. This funding would run under the Victims of Trafficking and Violence Protection Act for fiscal years 2026 through 2030.
• The bill would authorize $102.5 million each year for the main international anti-trafficking program from 2026 through 2030. No more than $37.5 million each year could go to programs to end modern slavery.
• The Program to End Modern Slavery would run longer and report through 2029. Its grants would have to be awarded through competition, with the usual notice to Congress.
• Groups funded by the Program to End Modern Slavery would have to name their subgrantees. They could list them publicly or, if safety is a concern, send the names in a classified annex to specified congressional committees.
• U.S. officials at international development banks would have to push for trafficking risk checks in some projects. This would apply in countries listed as Tier 2 Watch List, Tier 3, or Special Case in the State Department's Trafficking in Persons Report.
