1Technical corrections to the Trafficking Victims Protection Act of 2000
This section would change two cross-references inside section 103 of the Trafficking Victims Protection Act of 2000 (22 U.S.C. 7102). In paragraph (16) of that section, it would replace a reference to paragraph (9) with a reference to paragraph (11). In paragraph (17), it would replace a reference to paragraph (9) or (10) with a reference to paragraph (11) or (12). Rendering what this actually changes in plain language requires the current text of section 103's paragraphs (9) through (17), which is not in the provided bill text, so the practical effect cannot be stated without guessing.
