We want to make sure we have the very best information possible in the TIP Report.

There are some sanctuary countries for human traffickers that exist today on the face of the earth.

It is out of sight and it is out of mind.

Today in front of this committee, I am getting to introduce Susan Coppedge who studied under Sally Yates to be the Ambassador at Large for Trafficking in Persons, and I am honored and privileged to be able to do so.

I appreciate the privilege of doing it.

I hope you are successful at accomplishing exactly that, because it is a worrisome fact that as many Americans as are expected or that we anticipate are trying to find their way to Syria or to ISIL to be trained and come back to be a…
