§ 7112. Additional activities to monitor and com-
bat forced labor and child labor
(a) Activities of the Department of State
(1) Finding
Congress finds that in the report submitted
to Congress by the Secretary of State in June
2005 pursuant to section 7107(b) of this title,
the list of countries whose governments do not
comply with the minimum standards for the
elimination of trafficking and are not making
significant efforts to bring themselves into
compliance was composed of a large number of
countries in which the trafficking involved
forced labor, including the trafficking of
women into domestic servitude.
(2) Sense of Congress
It is the sense of Congress that the Director
of the Office to Monitor and Combat Traf-
ficking of the Department of State should in-
tensify the focus of the Office on forced labor
in the countries described in paragraph (1) and
other countries in which forced labor con-
tinues to be a serious human rights concern.
(3) Information sharing
The Secretary of State shall, on a regular
basis, provide information relating to child
labor and forced labor in the production of
goods in violation of international standards
to the Department of Labor to be used in de-
veloping the list described in subsection
(b)(2)(C).
(b) Activities of the Department of Labor
(1) In general
The Secretary of Labor, acting through the
head of the Bureau of International Labor Af-
fairs of the Department of Labor, shall carry
out additional activities to monitor and com-
bat forced labor and child labor in foreign
countries as described in paragraph (2).
(2) Additional activities described
The additional activities referred to in para-
graph (1) are—
(A) to monitor the use of forced labor and
child labor in violation of international
standards;
(B) to provide information regarding traf-
ficking in persons for the purpose of forced
labor to the Office to Monitor and Combat
Trafficking of the Department of State for
inclusion in trafficking in persons report re-
quired by section 7107(b) of this title;
(C) to develop and make available to the
public a list of goods from countries that the
Bureau of International Labor Affairs has
reason to believe are produced by forced
labor or child labor in violation of inter-
national standards, including, to the extent
practicable, goods that are produced with in-
puts that are produced with forced labor or
child labor;
(D) to work with persons who are involved
in the production of goods on the list de-
scribed in subparagraph (C) to create a
standard set of practices that will reduce the
likelihood that such persons will produce
goods using the labor described in such sub-
paragraph; and
(E) to consult with other departments and
agencies of the United States Government to
reduce forced and child labor internationally
and ensure that products made by forced
labor and child labor in violation of inter-
national standards are not imported into the
United States.

**(a) Purposes** The purposes of this chapter are to combat trafficking in persons, a contemporary manifestation of slavery whose victims are predominantly women and children, to ensure just and effective punishment of traffickers, and to protect their victims.
**(b) Findings** Congress finds that:
(1) As the 21st century begins, the degrading institution of slavery continues throughout the world. Trafficking in persons is a modern form of slavery, and it is the largest manifestation of slavery today. At least 700,000 persons annually, primarily women and children, are trafficked within or across international borders. Approximately 50,000 women and children are trafficked into the United States each year.
(2) Many of these persons are trafficked into the international sex trade, often by force, fraud, or coercion. The sex industry has rapidly expanded over the past several decades. It involves sexual exploitation of persons, predominantly women and girls, involving activities related to prostitution, pornography, sex tourism, and other commercial sexual services. The low status of women in many parts of the world has contributed to a burgeoning of the trafficking industry.
(3) Trafficking in persons is not limited to the sex industry. This growing transnational crime also includes forced labor and involves significant violations of labor, public health, and human rights standards worldwide.
(4) Traffickers primarily target women and girls, who are disproportionately affected by poverty, the lack of access to education, chronic unemployment, discrimination, and the lack of economic opportunities in countries of origin. Traffickers lure women and girls into their networks through false promises of decent working conditions at relatively good pay as nannies, maids, d
