SECTION 1. STATEMENT OF POLICY. 
It is the policy of the United States— 
(1) to strengthen the prohibition against the 
importation of goods made with forced labor, includ-
ing by ensuring that the Government of the People’s 
Republic of China does not undermine the effective 
enforcement of section 307 of the Tariff Act of 1930 
(19 U.S.C. 1307), which prohibits the importation of 
all ‘‘goods, wares, articles, and merchandise mined, 
produced or manufactured wholly or in part in any 
foreign country by * * * forced labor’’; 
(2) to lead the international community in end-
ing forced labor practices wherever such practices 
occur through all means available to the United 
States Government, including by stopping the impor-
tation of any goods made with forced labor, includ-
ing those goods mined, produced, or manufactured 
wholly or in part in the Xinjiang Uyghur Autono-
mous Region; 
(3) to coordinate with Mexico and Canada to ef-
fectively implement Article 23.6 of the United 
States-Mexico-Canada Agreement to prohibit the im-
portation of goods produced in whole or in part by 
forced or compulsory labor, including those goods 
mined, produced, or manufactured wholly or in part 
in the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region;
(4) to actively work to prevent, publicly de-
nounce, and end human trafficking including with 
respect to forced labor, whether sponsored by the 
government of a foreign country or not, and to re-
store the lives of those affected by human traf-
ficking, a modern form of slavery; 
(5) to regard the prevention of atrocities as it 
is in the national interest of the United States, in-
cluding efforts to prevent torture, enforced dis-
appearances, severe deprivation of liberty, including 
mass internment, arbitrary detention, and wide-
spread and systematic use of forced labor, and per-
secution targeting any identifiable ethnic or religious 
group; and 
(6) to address gross violations of human rights 
in the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region— 
(A) through bilateral diplomatic channels 
and multilateral institutions where both the 
United States and the People’s Republic of 
China are members; and 
(B) using all the authorities available to 
the United States Government, including visa 
and financial sanctions, export restrictions, and 
import controls.
