2. Popular Information contacted 17 consumer clothing brands and asked them to clarify whether their products contained cotton produced in Xinjiang. Only one provided a response There is a reason why companies don't want to answer this basic question https://t.co/sdJoTWr7q1 — PolitiTweet.org

1. According to the State Department, cotton from the Chinese territory of Xinjiang is being harvested with forced manual labor Is that cotton in the products you buy? We decided to ask major clothing brands to find out. Follow along if interested. https://t.co/sdJoTWr7q1 — PolitiTweet.org

3. Most major clothing brands are members of the Better Cotton Initiative. Up until last year the BCI was "certifying" cotton from Xinjiang. In October 2020 that stopped, citing "sustained allegations of forced labour and other human rights abuses" https://t.co/sdJoTWr7q1 — PolitiTweet.org
