International Megan's Law Passed in the United States House of Representatives
by MichelleSorry to be so late reporting this; just back from holidays and am catching up on all the news I missed when I was off. In June we wrote about H.R. 1623, a bill written to expand the protection of Megan's Law, mandating reporting requirements for convicted sex traffickers including pimps against minors to engage in international travel, and preventing entry into the U.S. by any foreign sex offender against a minor.
Click here for Covenant House International's piece on this recently passed legislation and thanks to our American friends who supported this new and important piece of legislation.
