Description

The FABRIC Act introduces groundbreaking new workplace protections and manufacturing incentives to cement the US as the global leader in responsible apparel production. The Fashioning Accountability and Building Real Institutional Change (FABRIC Act / S.4312), introduced in the Senate by Senator Kirsten Gillibrand (NY) and in the House of Representatives by Carolyn Maloney (NY), would protect nearly 100,000 American garment workers and revitalize the garment industry in the United States by improving working conditions, reforming the piece-rate pay scale and investing in domestic apparel production. In partnership with Remake, The Canvas invites you to an event and panel discussion to learn about The FABRIC Act and discover ways to become involved. The panel will feature three women pioneering the sustainable fashion movement to discuss their work and involvement in FABRIC. The conversation will be hosted by Emily Stochl and recorded as a live episode for Pre-Loved Podcast.
