Plain-English Summary

This bill would impose economic sanctions and travel restrictions on Chinese officials and entities that the U.S. government determines are responsible for human rights abuses against Uyghurs and other ethnic minorities in Xinjiang. The measure aims to hold accountable those involved in what supporters describe as genocide and forced labor, affecting Chinese government officials, security forces, and companies involved in these activities. It would also require the State Department to document and report on the situation in Xinjiang.
