The United States seized a record-high $50 million this year in imported goods that were produced by companies who used forced labor, and it expects to do more blocking under the incoming Biden administration.
"Absolutely, this type of enforcement action will continue," Ana Hinojosa, executive director of U.S. Customs and Border Protection's Trade Remedy Law Enforcement Directorate, told reporters Wednesday. "Forced labor in the U.S. supply chain is a very bipartisan issue. ... For this upcoming year, I would expect that we would continue, at least at the same pace."
