\n(Monday, July 2, 2012)<\/em><\/p>\n

On the opening day of the negotiations, hundreds of labor, environmental, free speech and Occupy activists gathered for a noontime press event and rally calling for Fair Trade, not free trade. \u00a0The event was hosted by the San Diego and Imperial Counties Labor Council.<\/p>\n

The Stakeholder Forum<\/strong>
\n(Monday, July 2, 2012)\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

Twenty fair trade advocates attended the official Stakeholder Forum wearing t-shirts with messages to TPP negotiators. \u00a0The backs read: “Americans Oppose: Longer Drug Patents, Investor-State, Ag Dumping, Financial Deregulation and a Global Race to the Bottom on Labor and the Environment.” \u00a0The front read: “TPP: No Back-Room Deals for the 1%.”<\/p>\n

Negotiator Reception<\/strong>
\n(Friday, July 6, 2012)<\/em><\/p>\n

Negotiators attended a reception organized by Citizens Trade Campaign, the AFL-CIO, Machinists, Communications Workers of America, United Steelworkers, Teamsters, Friends of the Earth, Public Citizen and Sierra Club. \u00a0Fair trade concerns were shared in opening remarks by Lorena Gonzalez of the San Diego and Imperial Counties Labor Council and Congressman Bob Filner, as well as in one-on-one conversations. \u00a0Referencing the lack of transparency around the negotiations, Rep. Filner said, “As a Congressman who has to vote on this stuff, I’d love to be better informed of what’s going on.”<\/p>\n
