报告摘要：
Exploiting 18 million freight shipment records, we show that U.S. firms increase import 7% more from countries that strengthen labor laws through mandatory workforce policy (MWP) regulations, especially from new suppliers. Firms that care more about labor welfare and social issues tend to respond strongly to MWP adoptions in supplier countries by increasing imports, despite facing higher operating cost. Our results are consistent with firms responding to employee preferences as we find the import increase from MWP countries is more pronounced when majority of firms’ employees are in Democratic states, and in industries with greater employee bargaining power. Our findings are robust to alternative channels and have important policy implications.
