SEC. 2. FINDINGS; SENSE OF CONGRESS. 
(a) FINDINGS.—Congress finds the following: 
(1) Wildlife trafficking is a major transnational 
crime that is estimated to generate over $10 billion 
a year in illegal profits and which is increasingly 
perpetrated by organized, sophisticated criminal en-
terprises, including known terrorist organizations. 
(2) Wildlife trafficking not only threatens en-
dangered species worldwide, but also jeopardizes 
local security, spreads disease, undermines rule of 
law, fuels corruption, and damages economic devel-
opment. 
(3) Combating wildlife trafficking requires a co-
ordinated and sustained approach at the global, re-
gional, national, and local levels. 
(4) Congress stated in the Eliminate, Neu-
tralize, and Disrupt Wildlife Trafficking Act of 2016 
that it is the policy of the United States to take im-
mediate actions to stop the illegal global trade in 
wildlife 
and 
wildlife 
products 
and 
associated 
transnational organized crime. 
(b) SENSE OF CONGRESS.—It is the sense of Con-
gress that the Department of State’s rewards program is
a powerful tool in combating sophisticated international 
crime and that the Department of State and Federal law 
enforcement should work in concert to offer rewards that 
target wildlife traffickers.
