No Dollars to Uyghur Forced Labor Act
HR 4039 prohibits U.S. State Department and USAID funds from supporting programs involving goods made in Xinjiang, China - whether wholly or partially produced there. It blocks funding for contracts, policies, or activities using such goods unless the Secretary of State specifically authorizes it after proving no forced labor was used (with clear evidence) and providing 15 days' notice to congressional leaders. The law directly affects U.S. foreign assistance programs that might source materials from Xinjiang. It aligns with existing U.S. trade law definitions of forced labor and creates strict barriers to using Xinjiang-sourced goods in U.S. international programs.
