01-13 GOOD NEWS. Senator Blackburn Introduces Several Bills to Combat Scourge of Human Trafficking
WASHINGTON, D.C. – Ahead of National Human Trafficking Awareness Day on January 11th, U.S. Senator Marsha Blackburn (R-Tenn.) reintroduced a package of four bills to combat human trafficking, including the SAVE Girls Act, National Human Trafficking Database Act, End Child Trafficking Now Act, and PRINTS Act. Read more about this legislation below.
“Human trafficking is a vile crime, and we need to do everything in our power to deter criminals and trafficking rings from preying on innocent men, women, and children,” said Senator Blackburn. “These bills would establish a national human trafficking database, authorize additional funding to prevent trafficking, combat child recycling at the border, and prevent traffickers from smuggling children across the border by requiring a DNA test to determine the relationship of accompanying children.”

01-11 Today is National Human Trafficking Awareness Day. Take Action. What Will You Do to Make a Difference?
01-10 The Supreme Court is Set to Hear Arguments Today, Friday, 01/10, on Whether to Overturn or Delay a Law that Could Lead to a Ban on TikTok in the U.S. in the Coming Days. Should TikTok be Banned?
The Supreme Court is set to hear arguments Friday morning on whether to overturn or delay a law that could lead to a ban on TikTok in the U.S. in the coming days.
The law is set to take effect on Jan. 19, nine months after it swiftly passed Congress with bipartisan support and was signed into law by President Biden. It requires the widely popular app to cut ties with its China-based parent company, ByteDance, or lose access to app stores and web-hosting services in the U.S. The law also gives the president the ability to grant a 90-day delay in its implementation if a sale is in progress.
The case pits the First Amendment’s right to free speech against what the federal government and lawmakers say are threats to national security posed by TikTok. The Supreme Court moved with extraordinary speed in considering the case, agreeing to take up the dispute just two days after lawyers for the platform sought its intervention on an emergency basis.

The Republican-led House passed its first bill of the new Congress on Tuesday — a strict border measure named for a 22-year-old Georgia nursing school student whose murder last year by an immigrant in the country illegally became a flashpoint in the presidential campaign.
The 264-159 vote to pass the Laken Riley Act puts pressure on Senate Democrats to support the legislation when Republicans, who now control the upper chamber, bring it to the floor for an initial vote Friday, which would have been Riley’s 23rd birthday.
