From the Enough Project;

The Conflict Minerals Trade Act of 2009 (HR 4128) would create a system of audits and import declarations that would distinguish those goods imported into the United States that contain conflict minerals. The resulting transparency would be an important step toward breaking the links between the mineral trade and horrific human rights abuses in Congo.

If passed into law, the Conflict Minerals Trade Act will give you, as a consumer, the choice to purchase conflict-free electronics products. Introduced by Representative Jim McDermott (D-WA), Frank Wolf (R-VA) and Barney Frank (D-MA), the Conflict Minerals Trade Act of 2009 (HR 4128) would create a system of audits and import declarations that would distinguish those goods imported into the United States that contain conflict minerals. The resulting transparency would be an important step toward breaking the links between the mineral trade and horrific human rights abuses in Congo.
