This bill proposes to make permanent a specific financial assessment on convicted individuals and entities. It amends Section 3014(a) of title 18, United States Code, by eliminating the current expiration date of September 30, 2025, for this assessment. Currently, a $5,000 special assessment is imposed on non-indigent persons or entities found guilty of certain offenses. By removing the sunset clause, the bill ensures the continuous collection of these funds, which are designated to support programs for victims of trafficking.
