H.R. 5740 · 116th Congress
Save Our Girls from Sex Trafficking Act of 2020
Key: what the circles and colors mean
Each circle is a bill. The ring fills as it moves through Congress:
Under the number: the Yea · Nay count of its final (or latest) recorded vote. On a member's page, the small badge is how that member voted: Y Yea / Aye, N Nay / No, P Present, – Not voting.
Gold and violet are only for Yea and Nay; they never mean a party. A member's party is the letter on their photo.
Never voted on. It didn't reach a floor vote before the 116th Congress ended, so it expired. A bill has to be introduced again to be considered in a new Congress.
No cosponsors.
This bill establishes an interagency task force and authorizes various grants to combat domestic child human trafficking. Additionally, it requires the Department of Justice and the Department of Health and Human Services to study and report on child human trafficking, including how and why children enter the sex trade.
