The U.S. Senate passed legislation to ban the import of products from China's Xinjiang region, the latest effort in Washington to punish Beijing for what U.S. officials say is an ongoing genocide against Uyghurs and other Muslim groups

The Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act would create a "rebuttable presumption" assuming goods manufactured in Xinjiang are made with forced labor and therefore banned under the 1930 Tariff Act, unless otherwise certified by U.S. authorities.

The bill must also pass the House of Representatives before it can be sent to the White House for President Joe Biden to sign into law. It was not immediately clear when that might take place. "We will not turn a blind eye to the CCP's ongoing crimes against humanity, and we will not allow corporations a free pass to profit from those horrific abuses," Rubio said in a statement.

Schumer and Senate Democrats unveil proposal to federally decriminalize marijuanaSenate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer and a group of other Senate Democrats introduced draft legislation on Wednesday that would decriminalize marijuana at the federal level by striking it from the federal controlled substances list. And there's a potential new source of tax revenue. Democrats don't care about peoples health - anything to get votes & tax money. Ingesting smoke (Cigarettes, Vaping, Joints, fumes) into you lungs isn't healthy = cancer, COPD, addictions. Medical marijuana doesn't cure anything BS to get you to accept it so they can tax it This would also allow scientists in the US to conduct studies on marijuana with humans right?
