Call for an Immediate Moratorium on New Free Trade Agreements
Remember NAFTA - the trade deal that consolidated the power of corporations and took the bottom out of the US and Mexican economies? Four more bilateral trade agreements - between the US and Colombia, Peru, Panama and South Korea - modeled on NAFTA, are pending in Congress. Congress will also be considering whether to reauthorize Fast Track, a move that would give the president the power to continue imposing this disastrous trade policy with no discussion, no studies and no Congressional or citizen input.
Join a new initiative to call for an IMMEDIATE MORATORIUM ON NEW FREE TRADE AGREEMENTS by signing on to the following petition, already endorsed by the Alliance for Responsible Trade, which is a coalition of over 35 trade, labor and faith-based organizations. Instead of further supporting a failing trade policy, let's join together to examine who really benefits from these agreements and to generate informed discussion on positive alternatives.
