Search Primer

Term list: Separate terms with spaces, not commas or semicolons.

Multi-word term: Place inside quotes to ensure an exact match (e.g. "China import").

Acronyms: Use all capital letters to ensure the search is not looking for that letter sequence instead.

Required term: If a term must be included in any resulting articles, prefix it with a plus sign (e.g., +CBP).

Excluded term: If a term should be excluded from any articles being found, prefix it with a minus sign (e.g., -ruling).

Singular form: Always use the singular form when doing multi-word terms (e.g. "russian export control" instead of "russian export controls").

Shortest word form: When you have different word forms in a quoted (multi-word) term, you want to only include the shortest version if it is the last part of the expression (e.g., "entity list" instead of "entity listing" or "entity listed").

Nonprofits Ask CBP to Block Import of Palm Oil Harvested With Forced Labor
August 15, 2019 |Customs

Nonprofit groups, led by the International Labor Rights Forum, have filed a formal complaint with CBP asking that it block imports of palm oil from Malaysian plantations run by FGV, because the product is harvested with forced labor. The complaint, filed Aug. 15, says that migrant laborers are recruited in Indonesia, Bangladesh, India, Myanmar, Nepal and the Philippines, and after arriving, are charged large fees for the jobs that turn them into indentured servants for months. The groups, which include SumofUs and Rainforest Action Network, also say that the companies seize the workers' passports so they cannot leave.
