Chinese E-Commerce Giants Accused of Evading Tariffs and Using Forced Labor

Shein and Temu, two major Chinese retailers, are exploiting loopholes to ship products duty-free and avoid scrutiny, according to Congressional report.
The companies are accused of failing to prevent the use of forced labor in their supply chains, violating US law banning goods from Xinjiang without proof they're not made with forced labor.
Shein and Temu ship nearly 600,000 packages per day to the US valued under $800, exempting them from duties and allowing minimal oversight.
Lawmakers argue the companies have an unfair advantage and introduced bills to close the loopholes.
The report is part of an ongoing investigation into the companies' alleged human rights abuses and ties to the Chinese government.
