DHS Blocks Chinese Genomics Companies Linked to Forced Labor from U.S. Imports

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) announced the addition of three Chinese genomics companies to the Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act (UFLPA) Entity List. This action prohibits goods made by these companies from entering the United States unless importers can prove they were not produced with forced labor, citing credible information that these entities support genetic testing and surveillance of ethnic minorities in the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region.
