senate 05/08/2025 - 119th Congress
We are working to ensure that the United States actively opposes international loans supporting projects linked to forced labor, especially in the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region, by directing our representatives to use their influence to prevent such funding. Our goal is to promote transparency and accountability in global financing to help eliminate forced labor worldwide.
