ts offered an amendment that declared climate 
change to be caused by humans.The amendment said: "Congress accepts the 
scientific findings of the Environmental Protection Agency that climate 
changes is occurring, is caused largely by human activities, and poses significant 
risks for public health and welfare."That amendment failed, on a 184-240 
vote -- which is where the 240 number came from in the 
OFA ad.But three of those no votes were Democrats. And not all 
of the Republicans who voted against the amendment are on record saying 
climate change is a sham. Republicans, rather, complained at the time that 
the amendment was not pertinent to the underlying bill.So where does the 
word "hoax" come from?There appear to be a couple instances. One, according 
to the Post, was from a Democrat, Rep. Henry Waxman, who said 
at the time that the Republican bill's premise was "that climate change 
is a hoax."The other was a quote from Republican Georgia Rep. Paul 
Broun, nestled into the Obama group's video right after the vote factoid. 
Broun said: "The idea of human-induced global climate change is one of 
the greatest hoaxes perpetrated out of the scientific community. It is a 
hoax."But as FactCheck.org pointed out, that quote was from 2009, two years 
earlier.FactCheck.org also said that Broun and other Republicans who completely 
deny a link to human activity are "off base." But the group 
noted there is a diversity of opinion among the GOP caucus on

involving allegations of workers being held against their will or threats 
of violence against workers or their families.If wrongdoing is uncovered, 
there would be immediate questions about diplomatic immunity.State Department 
spokesman Patrick Ventrell, at a briefing Thursday, did not say whether 
that would apply in this case, but acknowledged that the department "honors 
U.S. treaty obligations" with regard to immunity."But just to reiterate," 
he said, "under the Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations, diplomats 
are under a duty to respect the laws and regulations of the 
receiving state."He said the State Department is working with law enforcement 
agencies on the matter.In the wake of the allegations, Rep. Frank Wolf, 
R-Va., who's been a champion of cracking down on human trafficking, is 
holding a long-planned forum on the subject in McLean, less than a 
mile from where the alleged incident occurred.Wolf says it is often mistakenly 
assumed that human trafficking occurs only in foreign countries, but it 
is happening in American cities as well.Gangs like MS-13 operate prostitution 
rings in the D.C. area, often nabbing young immigrants and exploiting them. 
The vast majority of those trafficked are women and children.According to 
the State Department 800,000 people are trafficked across international 
borders each year. That does not include trafficking within a specific country's 
borders,including the United States.Traf
