CA could have led on forced-labor prevention.
AB 381 didn’t pass — and now a complaint alleges Hyundai & Kia supplied the state with goods linked to forced labor.
With $19B in annual contracts, CA can’t afford weak protections.
Time to close the gap.
#AB381
California bill #AB381 is a commonsense measure that would help to ensure that California taxpayer dollars do not fund egregious abuses like trafficking and forced labor.
California's procurement laws are outdated and toothless against forced labor. AB 381 would fix that—bringing state law in line with federal standards. U.S. Ambassadors + Fresno leaders are urging action. Support the bill. #EndForcedLabor #AB381

“I felt invisible.” Flor Molina survived labor trafficking in LA. Now she’s fighting for AB 381—a bill to stop California from funding forced labor. Our tax dollars have power. Let’s use them to fight trafficking. #AB381 #EndForcedLabor #SurvivorVoices @sacbee.com
California spends $19B/year on goods—but outdated policies mean tax dollars could support forced labor. AB 381 fixes that, aligning us with federal standards and promoting ethical procurement. Let’s lead with integrity.
