We encourage EU Council & @Europarl to approve the EU prohibition on forced labor made goods swiftly. The people who work to make the goods we consume deserve legislation that protects their rights. And EU consumers deserve protection from purchasing goods made with forced labor.

The US Tariff Act of 1930 & the Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act have proven that it is both necessary and feasible for government to prevent forced labor made goods from tainting our supply chains. Homeland Security stands ready to assist in implementation and share lessons learned.

Is this indicative of a new policy direction now that Border Services NOR has begun actively identifying and confiscating products manufactured through the exploitation of Uyghur forced labor? ⁦Laura Murphy⁩ ⁦Homeland Security⁩ ⁦Under Secretary Rob Silvers⁩ ⁦CBP⁩ pvbuzz.com/canada-border-…

Very meaningful to meet with leaders of the Uyghur diaspora. Every day Homeland Security blocks forced labor products and combats transnational repression, issues the Uyghur community knows all too well. We are committed to honoring and protecting their rights here, and in their homeland.

🛑 Member states say no to products made with forced labour! 🇪🇺 Ambassadors just confirmed the provisional agreement found in record time between EU Council & European Parliament. This regulation will prohibit products made with forced labour from being placed on the EU market.

As Homeland Security identifies more entities across different sectors that use or facilitate forced labor, we act to keep their tainted goods out of our nation’s supply chains.

The new acting Undersecretary of State for public diplomacy — State’s top public diplomacy official: 1) not only denies the Uyghur genocide but appears to applaud it 2) says the US should sell out Taiwan to China for concessions in Antarctica (???)

"Thailand's transfer of Uyghur detainees to China constitutes a blatant violation of Thailand's obligation under domestic and international laws," said Elaine Pearson, Asia Director, Human Rights Watch. Read the full statement below:

🚨 SHAMEFUL & HEARTBREAKING! 🚨 Thailand has deported 40 Uyghurs to China—straight into the hands of their oppressors. For 11 YEARS, powerful governments failed them. Now, their fate is sealed. We did EVERYTHING to stop this. The pain is unbearable. UK must condemn this NOW!
