Uyghur Genocide Accountability and Sanctions Act of 2025
Uyghur Genocide Accountability and Sanctions Act of 2025 is a proposed U.S. law that broadens and tightens sanctions related to rights abuses in China's Xinjiang region and aims to hold the PRC government and certain Chinese companies accountable for genocide and crimes against humanity. It expands the types of abuses that trigger sanctions, imposes new entry bans on individuals complicit in forced abortions or sterilizations, authorizes targeted humanitarian and cultural support for affected communities abroad, and creates new tools to document atrocities, counter propaganda, and curb forced labor and organ harvesting. It also imposes procurement restrictions on U.S. government contracts, directs a formal strategy to combat propaganda, and adds prohibitions on seafood procurement linked to human rights abuses. Some provisions authorize funding or require reporting and could affect U.S.-China relations, U.S. government operations, and U.S. supply chains.
