GovInfo lists H.R. 8712 as an introduced House bill in the 119th Congress. The May 7, 2026 action says Subramanyam introduced it and it was referred to the House Committee on Financial Services. The full title says it would amend the Securities Exchange Act to require issuer disclosures relating to Xinjiang.

Subramanyam took concrete same-term action in the lookback window, but the official record shows introduction and committee referral, not enactment.

The introduced text would require SEC rules within 180 days after enactment. Issuers would have to file documentation showing whether their supply or production chains include goods sourced through the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region or made by forced labor, and the SEC would make the information public.

The bill text closely matches the commitment, but its own operative language depends on enactment and later SEC rules, so the requirement is not yet in force.
