Signs Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act into law

President Biden signed the Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act, creating a rebuttable presumption that goods from China’s Xinjiang region are made with forced labor and barring their importation unless provenance is proven.

The law tightened U.S. trade restrictions tied to human-rights abuses in Xinjiang, reshaping supply-chain compliance and escalating U.S.–China economic and human-rights pressure.
