Emi-Coke Accountability Act of 2023

HR 4025, the Emi-Coke Accountability Act of 2023, establishes a national alert system to assist in locating victims of human trafficking, modeled after AMBER Alerts for missing children. It creates a Department of Justice Coordinator to develop voluntary guidelines for states on when to issue "Emi-Coke Alerts" (for trafficking victims), including criteria to limit overuse and protect privacy. The bill mandates annual reporting on alert issuance, success rates, and costs, while requiring states to follow minimum standards for alert dissemination without imposing mandatory participation. It authorizes $500,000 for the program and emphasizes privacy protections for victims, with no specific age requirements for eligibility.
