Bill Summary

25-1030 CONCERNING GOVERNMENT PROCUREMENT OF PRODUCTS WITH FORCED LABOR COMPONENTS.

AI Summary

This joint resolution addresses the issue of forced labor in product manufacturing, condemning the practice and outlining Colorado's stance against it. The resolution recognizes that many governmental products are made with components produced through forced labor, which is defined as work exacted under threat of penalty and without voluntary consent, including oppressive child labor. Drawing on federal legislation like the Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act (UFLPA) and the Trafficking Victims Protection Reauthorization Act (TVPRA), the resolution declares that forced labor is repugnant, violates human rights, constitutes discrimination, and damages fair economic competition. The state commits to using its purchasing power to support businesses that ethically source and manufacture products without forced labor, and encourages state and local economic development offices to attract businesses that adhere to these ethical standards. The resolution calls for distributing copies of this joint resolution to various state officials, including the Governor, Attorney General, and heads of economic development agencies, as well as Colorado's Congressional Delegation, to amplify its message and commitment to combating forced labor.
