International Trafficking Victims Protection Reauthorization Act of 2025

The International Trafficking Victims Protection Reauthorization Act of 2025 reauthorizes and updates key U.S. anti-trafficking laws focused on protecting victims and combating trafficking abroad, with a stronger emphasis on integrating anti-trafficking into international development and foreign assistance. Core changes include: getting multilateral development banks to incorporate counter-trafficking strategies into financed projects (especially in countries on the Tier 2 Watch List, Tier 3, or identified as Special Cases); expanding counter-trafficking considerations in U.S. foreign aid programs to avoid enabling trafficking or disaster-related vulnerabilities; tightening and rebranding tier rankings for compliance reporting; extending and adjusting funding programs (including the Program to End Modern Slavery) with new transparency and oversight requirements; expanding protections and monitoring for domestic workers employed by foreign diplomats (A-3 and G-5 visa holders); and extending the authorizations of related laws (Victims of Trafficking Act and International Megan’s Law) through the late 2020s. The bill also strengthens reporting and briefings to Congress on TIP rankings and waivers.
