The FABRIC Act, introduced by Senator Kirsten Gillibrand and Representative Carolyn Maloney, is a crucial step towards improving the garment industry. It aims to enforce minimum wage standards, combat factory violations, and increase transparency of brand practices, thereby protecting nearly 100,000 American garment workers. This legislation also seeks to invest in domestic apparel production, creating jobs with dignity and positioning the US as a global leader in responsible apparel production. It is essential to endorse this act and ensure its swift passage to safeguard the rights and livelihoods of garment workers, who are integral to our economy. The prioritization of people over fast fashion is a necessary shift in our industry practices.
