My thoughts are my own
Ian Urbina's most recent report is driving important change. Government and companies must act to protect workers and prevent products made with forced labor from entering the market.

FishWise surveyed the seafood industry about SIMP to unpack complex perspectives, identify missing voices, and find common goals to inform the future of U.S. seafood traceability policies. Read more here: https://t.co/ljPWlxbY7E #IUUFishing#traceability
FishWise is encouraged by the U.S. government's commitment to tackling IUU fishing and labor abuses in a recent Memorandum. Upholding labor rights in the fight against IUU fishing supports FishWise's mission of holistic sustainability. Visit https://t.co/uqys07RAT4 to learn more.
A report published today sets out how #ocean data transparency & tech can enable companies throughout #seafood supply chains to avoid produce from illegal, unreported & unregulated (#IUU) fishing. 🐟🌊 Learn more: https://t.co/u1M4WUldIQ #OceanAction#SDG14+
Have you tried opening your eyes underwater? Your vision is distorted & nothing's clear. Produce of illegal #fishing is equally murky for #SupplyChain companies, with devastating impacts on livelihoods, food security & #ocean life. #Data & tech can help. 🐟🌊 #OceanAction#SDG14+

@BlahaFrancisco @SALTtrace@RepHuffman Solid point. Ideally, this new bill would prioritize (among many other things) producer-country capacity building, program literacy, and continued outreach outside of the U.S since we all know much of the burden doesn't just lie with the importer...
Something BIG just happened in the #IUU fishing, social responsibility, and traceability worlds...
A new bipartisan bill was introduced by CA @RepHuffman that will expand #SIMP and help to combat #forcedlabor.
