The Fashion Sustainability and Social Accountability Act: Preparing for Compliance

New York's proposed Fashion Sustainability and Social Accountability Act (Fashion Act) is gaining momentum in 2025.The bill would require fashion retailers and manufacturers with global revenues exceeding $100 million to map their supply chains, disclose environmental and social impacts, and set targets for reducing those impacts.

Fashion businesses should proactively assess their supply chain practices and prepare for increased transparency requirements. Early compliance can position brands as leaders in sustainability and social responsibility.
