\"\"Corporations that benefit from NAFTA-style trade deals have long tried to frame the trade policy debate as one of being “for trade” or “against trade.” \u00a0The implication has been that there is no alternative to business-as-usual trade pacts other than just folding up shop and ending trade altogether.<\/p>\n

You and I know that’s bunk, and now the Oregon State Senate is on record, too, speaking out for new rules governing international trade<\/strong>. Sponsored by State Senators Chip Shields and Brian Boquist,\u00a0Senate Memorial 201<\/a>\u00a0calls on Congress to enact and the President to sign comprehensive trade reform legislation called the Trade, Reform, Accountability, Development and Employment Act \u2014 or TRADE Act, for short. \u00a0SM 201 passed on February 10, 2012 with overwhelming bipartisan support.<\/p>\n

The TRADE Act<\/a> lays out a new framework for international trade and would put an end to existing and future NAFTA-style trade agreements that put corporate profits ahead of working people, family farmers, consumer safety and the environment. \u00a0A heartfelt “THANK YOU” for all your help building support for a new model for trade.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
