Rep. Matt Cartwright has reportedly accepted tens of thousands of dollars of campaign donations from Uyghur labor-linked corporations during his time in Congress.he had accepted 33 donations totaling over $37,000 during his career in Congress from political action committees connected to corporations linked to Uyghur labor, according to the non-partisan think tank Australian Strategic Policy Institute .
The non-partisan think tank estimated that between 2017 and 2019, over 80,000 Uyghurs “were transferred out of Xinjiang and assigned to factories through labor transfer programs under a central government policy known as ‘Xinjiang Aid.’” ASPI notes that a small number of brands advised they have instructed their vendors to terminate their relationships with these suppliers in 2020. Others, including Adidas, Bosch and Panasonic, said they had no direct contractual relationships with the suppliers implicated in the labour schemes, but no brands were able to rule out a link further down their supply chain.
