Request for Input for Revisions to the
‘‘Know Your Rights’’ Pamphlet, Also
Known as the Wilberforce Pamphlet
The Department of State (‘‘the
Department’’) is planning to update the
‘‘Know Your Rights’’ pamphlet created
by the U.S. government in 2009
pursuant to the William Wilberforce
Trafficking Victims Protection
Reauthorization Act (Pub. L. 110–457)
and requests written recommendations
on how the pamphlet could be
improved. The pamphlet reaffirms and
strengthens the U.S. government’s
commitment to fight human trafficking
and labor abuses, and its purpose is to
provide information on the legal rights
and resources available to individuals
seeking employment- or educationbased nonimmigrant visas to the United
States. The pamphlet can be found here:
https://travel.state.gov/content/visas/
english/general/rights-protectionstemporary-workers.html. The
Department is not seeking to make
major changes to the pamphlet as much
of the pamphlet’s language is mandated
in the law and has been translated into
numerous languages; however, the
Department values feedback on the
current pamphlet and recommendations
for improvements from stakeholders in
the revision process. Submissions must
be made in writing to the Office to
Monitor and Combat Trafficking in
Persons at the Department of State by
July 6, 2015. Please refer to the
