A new grassroots campaign is calling on lawmakers to make fashion a core part of the legislative agenda:
Like Fashion of Tomorrow, GWC emphasizes the need for direct policy change, using organizing as a means to develop leaders who can demand enforcement of strong labor laws and accountability from factory owners, manufacturers and fashion brands. As of the last year, the group has made major inroads: In December 2020, California State Senator María Elena Durazo introduced a piece of legislation that would hold garment retailers responsible for labor violations occurring down the supply chain.
"What we really need is for campaigns like #Vote4Fashion and our allies to make sure we're loud and clear about this need for better accountability for workers," she says. "We need U.S. consumers to actually vocalize their opinion and demand better policy."
