Summary
Stop Gendercide Act
This bill amends the Trafficking Victims Protection Act to include in the Department of State's annual report on trafficking in persons research on the relationship between human trafficking and skewed sex ratios in national or sub-national populations in which there is evidence of sex-selective practices. These practices include infanticide, gender-biased neglect, and other forms of gender-based violence or discrimination.
