SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

    This Act may be cited as the ``Public-Private Partnership Advisory 
Council to End Human Trafficking Act''.

SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

    Congress finds the following:
            (1) According to a 2014 report by the International Labour 
        Organization, an estimated 20,900,000 people are enslaved in 
        human trafficking worldwide.
            (2) Slavery is estimated to be a $150,000,000,000 worldwide 
        industry.
            (3) The Department of State defines ``trafficking in 
        persons'' and ``human trafficking'' as umbrella terms for the 
        act of recruiting, harboring, transporting, providing, or 
        obtaining a person for compelled labor or commercial sex acts 
        through the use of force, fraud, or coercion.
            (4) Nearly 2,000,000 of the enslaved people are children 
        being forced into sex slavery.
            (5) Conservative estimates by the International Labour 
        Office indicate that a child sex slave may be raped as many as 
        10 to 15 times per night.
            (6) Although many developed regions and countries in the 
        world meet the standards of the Trafficking Victims Protection 
        Act (referred to in this Act as ``TVPA''), there are many 
        developing countries that--
                    (A) do not attempt to meet the minimum standards of 
                the TVPA; or
                    (B) lack the necessary resources or infrastructure 
                to employ effective anti-trafficking measures.
            (7) Although slavery is not legal in any country of the 
        world, it is taking place in every country and no country is 
        immune to the consequences of modern slavery.
