The US Department of State has moved China to Tier 3 on the Watch List in the in the newly released Trafficking in Persons Report. Secretary of State John Kerry says: "A recent study tells us that countries are twice as likely to take some kind of action to respond to this crime once they are listed in this report on Tier 3 or on the Tier 3 Watch List." 
Tier 3 nations may be subject to sanctions, if approved by the U.S. President. 
President Barack Obama now has 45-90 days to decide on a course of action for the offending countries—including invoking sanctions against China. A Chinese official responded with indignation, calling the downgrade an "arbitrary judgment."   
Reggie Littlejohn, President of
Women's Rights Without Frontiers, stated, "The anger of the Chinese government against the TIP Report is misplaced. They should channel their anger toward taking effective action against traffickers, rather than against the exposure to the world of their abysmal record on human trafficking."       
The TIP Report acknowledged China's one-child policy and cultural preference for sons as the "key source of demand" for trafficking of women. It also states that China's government has failed to "address the effects its birth limitation policy [has] in creating a gender imbalance and fueling trafficking."    

Littlejohn continued, "WRWF urges the Obama administration to apply appropriate sanctions against China, consistent with those allowed in the TIP Report."
