## Summary

**Assess the Department of State's technical capacity to counter AI-enabled trafficking.** This bill would require the Ambassador-at-Large for the Office to Monitor and Combat Trafficking in Persons to submit an assessment within 180 days that identifies gaps in access to technical expertise and, if gaps exist, describes actions and timelines using existing authorities. - Families and children: The assessment would prioritize trafficking involving children, highlighting where technical shortfalls could affect detection and prevention. - State Department staff and the Office to Monitor and Combat Trafficking in Persons: The office would inventory its access to specialized experts and outline remedies such as training, temporary details, inter-bureau coordination, or other measures with expected timelines. - Congress and the public: An unclassified report would be sent to relevant congressional committees and may include a classified annex to protect sensitive information. *This bill would not authorize or appropriate funding and therefore would not by itself increase federal spending.*
