H.R. 10176 — No PRC Seafood in Congress Act

This section finds that forced labor is pervasive in fishing, seafood harvesting, aquaculture, and seafood processing supply chains in the People’s Republic of China, and that the lack of reliable supply-chain transparency and traceability makes it impracticable to verify that seafood products from the People’s Republic of China are free from forced labor.

This section prohibits the procurement, serving, or sale of Chinese seafood products in congressional dining facilities. It requires covered entities to issue regulations within 180 days mandating that suppliers certify every country of origin for the seafood and retain substantiating records.
