A law to crack down on China’s alleged use of forced labor was one of the few pieces of legislation the U.S. Congress could agree on last year. When the Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act unanimously passed both the House and Senate and became law in December, one of its sponsors, Sen. Marco Rubio (R–Fla.), called it “the most important and impactful action taken thus far by the United States to hold the Chinese Communist Party accountable for their use of slave labor.” Another sponsor, Sen.

The supply chain for many small parcel shipping companies is typically long. Products are often made in distant lands, travel on oceans and waterways, arrive at ports, are then transported to warehouses, from where a third-party logistics provider delivers the product to its intended destination. In a stable world, shippers and customers alike can expect a product to be delivered within the promised time window. However, in a world facing high levels of uncertainty caused by war, pandemic, political instability, raw material shortages, freak accidents (recall the regional and national impact of the bridge collapse in the Port of Baltimore caused by a container ship), and weather, the shipper must work overtime to ensure customer expectations are met at no additional cost, despite these uncertainties.
