Bill Summary
A BILL To amend title 18, United States Code, regarding additional assessments on convicted persons, and for other purposes.
AI Summary
This bill, called the "Enduring Justice for Victims of Trafficking Act", amends an existing law in Title 18 of the United States Code regarding special assessments for convicted persons. Specifically, the bill modifies Section 3014(a) to permanently require courts to assess a $5,000 fee on non-indigent (not financially impoverished) individuals or entities convicted of certain offenses. Previously, this $5,000 assessment was time-limited, applying only from the enactment of the Justice for Victims of Trafficking Act of 2015 until September 30, 2025. By removing the time restriction, the bill makes this additional financial penalty a permanent requirement for convicted offenders. The revenue from these assessments is likely intended to support victims' services or trafficking prevention efforts, though the specific allocation is not detailed in the bill text.
