President Trump today signed three major bills which should help to end Human Trafficking and defend the children and victims affected by the terrifying human trafficking and sex slave trade.
Official Statement from President Donald J. Trump on the Passage of H.R. 2664, H.R. 2480, and H.R. 2200:
“My Administration is focused on ending the horrific practice of human trafficking, and the three bills the House of Representatives passed today are important steps forward.”
“Since taking office, I have met with courageous survivors, non-profit groups, and faith leaders who are devoting tremendous energy to raising awareness about human trafficking.”
“I am hopeful that the Senate will take up and pass these three bills as soon as possible and I look forward to my continued work with the Congress on this important issue”
H.R. 2664 is the Enhancing Detection of Human Trafficking Act, to direct the Secretary of Labor to train certain Department of Labor personnel how to effectively detect and assist law enforcement in preventing human trafficking during the course of their primary roles and responsibilities, and for other purposes.
H.R.2480 is the Empowering Law Enforcement to Fight Sex Trafficking Demand Act which will assist law enforcement in combating these heinous crimes against humanity.
H.R.2200 is the Frederick Douglass Trafficking Victims Prevention and Protection Reauthorization Act of 2017 which will reauthorize several programs within the Departments of Justice (DOJ), Health and Human Services (HHS), Homeland Security (DHS), Labor, and State, and the U.S Agency for International Development that combat trafficking in persons.
America can thank President Trump and his Administration for saving the lives of those affected and protecting the innocent. God Bless President Donald J. Trump.

All of this normally have an extra piece which I deleted for space, but also so I could write this, it sums up Trumps Presidency beautifully. Why you might ask? Simple, it's because everything Trump says and does is…. 'AN ACT'
Trump has busted four times the pedophiles as any other President. Some very big names Harvey Weinstein, Epstein, NXIVM Seagram's Heiress Brofman sunk her fortune in it with Keith Rainere, Smallville star Allison Mack all arrested.Weiner laptop with Abedien and Hilary video was so sick hardened NYPD Puked FBI hid it and NYPD said they'd get it out. 7 of 11 are now dead, Lawyer Sidney Powell said they should take HRC blackberry apart it is all there FBI covered it up. Boy scouts and college pedos uncovered and 70k worldwide internet ring that saved 250 kids and identified 670 suspects. Look up what Mel Gibson said about how they churn over babies as the biggest currency like diamonds, cocaine in Hollywood -thousands of them. Sick f'ing beings watch Out of Shadows written by two popular stuntmen these people are psychos.
The bullshit artist strikes again, what he's really done is encapsulate what is already being done, take the responsibility off him and pass it to someone else that way he can shout how it's not his fault, fondle the money and then finally reauthorise an ongoing act which he's required to do anyway. So in short he's re upped in bills continuation, and molested 2 minor ones for his own benefit and protection and then shout "look at me, super important", he becomes a greater embarrasment by the day. FFS, if you have to have a fucking republican that badly, dig up Nixon,at least he'd get more fucking respect and, he'd still probably do a better job.
Oh, and coming up in the next comments(assuming no one jumps in between), here's your 'super amazing bills', try not to be too embarrassed.
