Tell Congress Enough! End US Sweatshops, Create Jobs With Dignity
Congress
American garment workers face the second-highest rates of wage theft of any group of workers, and most of these workers are women. Paid pennies per article of clothing, some garment workers in the US can't even escape poverty. Likewise, many US apparel factories are forced to compete against bad actors. They lack the investments and transparency they need to rebuild and revitalize the industry.
Take a stand to end wage theft in the U.S. clothing industry and support responsible business! Help us cement the United States as a center for responsible apparel production!
The Fashioning Accountability and Building Real Institutional Change (FABRIC Act) of 2022, introduced in the Senate by Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand (NY) and into the House of Representatives by Caroline Maloney (NY), would protect garment workers, revitalize domestic manufacturing, and grow dignified jobs.

American garment workers face the second-highest rates of wage theft of any group of workers.
Apparel factories in the US are innovative and sustainable but are often forced to compete against unscrupulous actors and suffer from a lack of investment.
Take a stand to end wage theft and support responsible business. Help us grow good jobs in the American apparel industry!
The Fashioning Accountability and Building Real Institutional Change (FABRIC Act), introduced in the Senate by Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand (NY) and into the House of Representatives by Caroline Maloney (NY), would protect garment workers, revitalize industry, and cement the United States as the center for responsible apparel production.
That's why we are calling on Congress to support and pass the FABRIC Act!
