Sheldon Whitehouse actually said...

I am suggesting kind of two parts to the benefit. One is that it would create resources to help the victims, but it is also a sanction when hotel owners who are letting this happen lose their hotels and when Website owners who are allowing their Websites to be used for this purpose lose their Websites and their revenues, that is a value in and of itself apart from the restoration and protection of the victims.

Context

Whitehouse emphasizes the dual benefits of resource creation and sanctions against complicit businesses.
