Stop the Bleeding of Manufacturing Jobs!

Our legislators have failed to address and police our trade laws. They’ve allowed China's runaway currency manipulation and unfair government subsidies, as well as unfair dumping of products. All of this has plunged U.S. manufacturing and the U.S. economy into the current poor position.

We are watching some in Congress promote fast track trade authority that could once again create a sucking of manufacturing and jobs across our borders. Some in Congress want fast track authority to quickly approve due a questionable Asian trade agreement called Trans-Pacific Partnership. It would be a trade pact with Japan and a dozen other countries that have close ties with China.

It's time to stop the bleeding of manufacturing and jobs! Call your representative in both chambers. Stop the hemorrhaging, grow our economy!
