The FTC ordered the retailers to pay millions for “eco claims” around bamboo textiles, but more may be coming for fashion.

“We are committed to being the most trusted retailer and take these claims seriously. We hold ourselves accountable when issues like this are raised,” Randy Hargrove, a spokesperson for Walmart, said Monday. “We have worked to strengthen our product description programs and expect our suppliers to provide products that comply with all laws, including those around labeling. We value our relationship with the FTC and are pleased we could work with them to resolve these issues.
