Last week, you noticed that the Trump administration released its document of negotiating objectives for NAFTA 2.0.\u00a0 Our post, as Oregon Fair Trade Campaign, about this is the most previous post on this site.\u00a0 It is our statement of response to the Trump release.<\/p>\n

But you might be wondering\u2026 what are other corners of civil society (and labor and the like) saying about the Trump release??\u00a0 Well, let’s give you a thorough answer.\u00a0 Many people have given their specific side of the larger story that the Trump plan falls unacceptably short. \u00a0(It\u2019s not just Arthur Stamoulis of Citizens Trade Campaign whose statement we linked in the earlier post<\/a>.)<\/p>\n

Hoffa<\/a>, Leo Gerard<\/a>, Robert Martinez, Jr<\/a>, Chris Shelton<\/a>, Michael Brune<\/a>, Bill Waren<\/a>, Roger Johnson<\/a>, Juliet Majot<\/a>, and of course Lori Wallach<\/a>.<\/p>\n
