SEC. 2. FINDINGS; SENSE OF CONGRESS.
    (a) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
        (1) The crime of human trafficking involves the exploitation of 
    adults through force, fraud, or coercion, and children for such 
    purposes as forced labor or commercial sex.
        (2) Reliable data on the prevalence of human trafficking in the 
    United States is not available, but cases have been reported in all 
    50 States, the territories of the United States, and the District 
    of Columbia.
        (3) Each year, thousands of individuals may be trafficked 
    within the United States, according to recent estimates from victim 
    advocates.
        (4) More accurate and comprehensive data on the prevalence of 
    human trafficking is needed to properly combat this form of modern 
    slavery in the United States.
        (5) Victims of human trafficking can include men, women, and 
    children who are diverse with respect to race, ethnicity, and 
    nationality, among other factors.
        (6) Since the enactment of the Trafficking Victims Protection 
    Act of 2000 (Public Law 106-386; 114 Stat. 1464), human traffickers 
    have launched increasingly sophisticated schemes to increase the 
    scope of their activities and the number of their victims.
    (b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that Congress 
supports additional efforts to raise awareness of and oppose human 
trafficking.
