FILE - A truck arrives to pick up a shipping container near vessels at the Port of Los Angeles, Nov. 30, 2021. An influential government advisory panel comprised of major U.S. businesses is proposing new rules that would roll back already limited public access to import data, a move that trade experts say would make it harder to trace labor abuse by foreign suppliers. The proposal, if adopted, would shroud in secrecy customs data on ocean-going freight responsible for about half of the $2.7 trillion worth of goods entering the U.S. every year in the same way it already is for rail, truck and air cargo.

A flare burns at Venture Global LNG in Cameron, La., April 21, 2022. The new facility, which exports liquefied natural gas, is one of several like it along the Gulf Coast — and tmore are proposed for Louisiana and Texas. The U.S. has become the world’s largest exporter of LNG, and Russia’s invasion of Ukraine heightened demand for the fuel as countries in Europe cut their reliance on Russian energy. But the U.S. expansion of LNG facilities has come with consequences for Gulf Coast residents threatened by extreme weather, and for the planet threatened by greenhouse gases. Natural gas from the Permian Basin in Texas and other areas is sent by pipeline to the export facilities. It is then cooled and liquefied, making it possible to send much greater quantities by ship to Asia, Europe and other places that are hungry for natural gas. (AP Photo / Martha Irvine)
