SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

    This Act may be cited as the ``Convict Service Labor Prohibition 
Act of 1993''.

SEC. 2. FINDINGS AND PURPOSE.

    (a) Findings.--The Congress finds that--
            (1) the United States exists in a changed international 
        economic environment;
            (2) one part of this changed market place is an increase in 
        international trade and an advocacy by many policy makers and 
        many in the private sector of so-called free trade, based on 
        the reduction of tariff and non-tariff barriers to trade, a 
        major manifestation of which is the negotiation of a North 
        American Free Trade Agreement;
            (3) although expanded trade may provide increased economic 
        opportunity for some segments of the United States society, it 
        may also cause the loss of thousands of United States jobs. As 
        United States companies move their operations out of the United 
        States to take advantage of labor that costs as little as one-
        tenth of the wages of United States workers, the well-being of 
        working people across the United States is threatened;
            (4) another part of the changed United States market place 
        is the greatly increased importance of the service sector and 
        of service-based jobs in the United States;
            (5) the United States Customs Service ruled on July 15, 
        1992, in a case involving the sorting of coupons by Mexican 
        prisoners in a maquiladora operation that existing Federal law 
        does not prohibit the importation of goods upon which services 
        were performed by forced, convict or prison labor;
            (6) the Customs Service ruling of July 15, 1992, allows the 
        performance of a wide range of service activities, including 
        laundry cleaning, auto repair, appliance repair, and many 
        others, by prisoners in Mexico and other countries, possibly 
        even including some assembly operations that make up so much of 
        the so-called off-shore enterprises;
            (7) the Customs Service ruling of July 15, 1992, will cost 
        thousands of additional United States jobs as international 
        trade continues to expand and U.S. companies continue to take 
        advantage of low-waged labor, including imprisoned workers, 
        against which United States workers cannot compete; and
            (8) existing Federal trade law is intended to protect 
        United States workers from the unfair foreign competition of 
        work done in other countries by forced, convict or prison 
        labor; however, in light of the Customs Service ruling of July 
        15, 1992, existing Federal law is clearly inadequate to protect 
        United States workers.
    (b) Purpose.--The purpose of this Act is to amend and enhance 
Federal law protections for United States jobs by prohibiting the 
importation into the United States from any other country goods on 
which services were performed by convicts or prisoners, and by 
establishing penalties for violation of this Act.

                    (A) by inserting after ``manufactured'' the 
                following: ``, or on which services are performed,''; 
                and
                    (B) by striking the second sentence;
            (3) by striking ```Forced Labor,'''; and

                    ``(A) enters or imports, or attempts to enter or

                    ``(B) knew or should have known that such entry or 
                importation, or attempted entry or importation, was in 
                violation of such subsection, shall be liable to pay to 
                the United States a civil penalty.
            ``(2) Amount of penalty.--Any civil penalty imposed under 
        paragraph (1) shall be in an amount not to exceed--
                    ``(A) $10,000 for one violation;
                    ``(B) $100,000 in the case of a person previously 
                subject to a penalty for one violation under this 
                section; or
                    ``(C) $1,000,000 in the case of a person previously
