For the first time in almost twenty years, the U.S. may improve the labor rights standards that developing countries must meet to qualify for duty free trade. For twenty-five years, the U.S. has allowed approximately $16 billion in goods from developing countries that meet certain labor rights standards to enter the country without tariffs under the Generalized System of Preference (GSP). The U.S. Senate is expected to pass a revision of this legislation, that will require countries to prohibit discrimination in employment and occupational choices in order to benefit from the GSP.
