The so-called Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) – a $749 billion climate and tax deal – provides billions of dollars in taxpayer-funded subsidies to the solar industry. The solar industry is dominated by Chinese manufacturers who rely heavily on the forced labor of Uyghurs and other predominantly Muslim ethnic groups to produce critical inputs for solar panels.
U.S Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL) and U.S. Representative Mike Gallagher (R-WI) sent a letter to U.S. Customs and Border Protection Acting Commissioner Troy Miller and U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas expressing concern that the IRA solar subsidies may contradict the enforcement of Rubio’s Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act. The landmark law bans goods made with the slave labor of Uyghurs and other predominantly Muslim ethnic groups in the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region and elsewhere in the People’s Republic of China from entering the United States.
Senator Tom Cotton (R-AR) and Representative Chris Smith (R-NJ) also signed the letter.
