Request for Input for Revisions to the “Know Your Rights” Pamphlet, Also Known as the Wilberforce Pamphlet
Document Number: 2015-13441
Type: Notice
Date: 2015-06-02
Agency: Department of State
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 education-based nonimmigrant visas to the United States. The pamphlet can be found here: https://travel.state.gov/ content/visas/english/general/rights-protections-temporary- 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 ADDRESSES, Scope of Interest, and Information Sought sections of this Notice for additional instructions on submission requirements.
