Trade Embargo Act

The Trade Embargo Act was a trade embargo proposed in the Galactic Senate in 37 BBY that restricted trade with criminal organizations and limited access to key trade routes within Republic space. Following the Canto Bight Summit, in which Supreme Chancellor Finis Valorum signed a treaty with the Wey Clan, Senator Hela Naterrie of Milano proposed the bill as a means of limiting the overall influence of criminal organizations and funding efforts in law enforcement. Though some senators worried that the criminals would retaliate in response to the embargo, the Senate decided to vote in favor of the bill, which in turn, saved Valorum's seat in office.
