Help trafficking survivors travel by air without identification

Susie Lee supports the reintroduced Jimmy Deal Trafficking Survivors Assistance Act, which would help human trafficking survivors who lack identification travel by plane to escape abuse and reach family, communities, and care. The bill would have the TSA establish a trained Trafficking Survivor Point of Contact at each airport where TSA screens passengers and property, and encourage coordination with nonprofit service providers. The contacts and organizations would work in advance on ways to verify survivors’ identities, with training focused on trauma-informed support through reunification.

In their own words

Our legislation will facilitate air travel for these survivors so that they may return to their families and communities and begin to heal.
