Plain-English Summary
People who have survived human trafficking but don't have government-issued ID would be able to fly on airplanes by using alternative forms of identification or documentation, making it easier for them to travel and rebuild their lives after escaping trafficking situations. The bill addresses a practical barrier that trafficking survivors often face, since many lose or never obtain standard IDs during their exploitation. This would help survivors access air travel for relocation, medical care, or other essential purposes without being stuck on the ground.
