Obama Bans U.S. Imports of Slave-Produced Goods
Solidarity Center's Neha Misra said, "Before U.S. law said that we would tolerate forced labor if we really wanted a product for domestic consumption. Now, we are saying that we will not tolerate forced labor for any reason. This is a major step forward," in response to an announcement that federal officials are preparing to enforce an 86-year-old ban on importing goods made by children or slaves under new provisions of a law signed by President Barack Obama.
