New TSA Assistance for Human Trafficking Survivors Lacking ID to Fly.

This law establishes a specialized support system at airports for human trafficking survivors who need to fly but lack necessary identification documents. The TSA will designate a specific employee (TSPoC) at every major airport to liaise with non-profit service providers and guide survivors through security screening and identity verification. This ensures survivors can travel safely and compassionately to new locations or support systems.
Key points
TSA must establish Trafficking Survivor Points of Contact (TSPoCs) at all major airports, trained in trauma-informed care.
Survivors of trafficking can access air travel without standard government ID, provided their identity is verified through an eligible non-profit service provider.
TSPoCs will personally escort survivors through security checkpoints and to the departure/arrival gates, ensuring a safe and supportive travel experience.
Non-profit organizations assisting survivors must register with the TSA to utilize this travel assistance program.
