  •  
    THE RECENTLY INTRODUCED "Halting of Trafficking and Exploitation in Lodging" Act would encourage federal employees traveling for business to choose hotels with anti-human trafficking programs. The legislation also would ensure that the U.S. government's preferred accommodations for conferences and employee travel are committed to training staff to recognize, prevent and respond to human trafficking. The bipartisan HOTEL Act, introduced by Reps. Chris Smith and Raja Krishnamoorthi on Sept. 19, gained support from anti-trafficking organizations and lodging associations, including the American Hotel and Lodging Association, Protecting All Children from Trafficking and Hope for Justice. Smith, who has authored five laws to combat human trafficking, argued that hotels are key locations for identifying and addressing sex and labor trafficking.
