The Texas Fair Trade Coalition<\/strong> (TFTC) is a diverse, nonpartisan coalition of labor, environmental, community, family farm, religious, and human rights organizations. Since its founding in 2002, TFTC has been on the forefront of efforts to educate Texans about the impact of trade on their lives and on the world around them. We have also worked to turn the growing awareness of the dangers of corporate-led globalization into real democratic action for change. Our member organizations are united in a common fight against harmful NAFTA-model trade agreements. We support trade reform that is fair to workers, the environment, family farmers and public health, here and around the world.<\/p>\n
