The Committee on Oversight and Government Reform is directed to continue its

to improve Federal efforts to combat sex trafficking and reform the use of non-
prosecution agreements and plea agreements in sex-crime investigations.

reconstituted to unveil and identify a victim;

such records to provide written justifications for each 
redaction or withholding, and shall make each such 
justification publicly available promptly upon receipt.
Attest:

Clerk.
