tim of trafficking for the purpose of engaging in a 
commercial sex act with that person, are committing 
a human trafficking offense under Federal law; and 
(4) the demand for commercial sex is a primary 
cause of the human rights violation of human traf-
ficking, and the elimination of that human rights 
violation requires the elimination of that demand.
