Passed Senate Re-checks Congress.gov for new actions and updates the bill's status, and fills in any sponsors, committees, or related bills that are missing. It does not re-pull sponsors/cosponsors/committees/related — those rarely change — and it skips all work if nothing has changed upstream, so it's cheap to click.

Summary

This bill makes technical corrections to the Trafficking Victims Protection Act of 2000 by updating internal cross-references within Section 103. The corrections adjust paragraph references in two locations where the numbering had become misaligned with earlier amendments to the law. These are administrative updates to ensure the law's internal references point to the correct paragraphs.
