Join displaced workers from Freightliner, Georgia-Pacific, Intel and elsewhere to discuss the negative impacts free trade agreements like NAFTA are having on Portland-area communities — and what we can do to finally put an end to Fast Track and destructive trade policies once-and-for-all. Free trade agreements like NAFTA have cost thousands of people in the Portland metro area their jobs. Many more are at risk of having their jobs shipped abroad if trade policies continue on their current course.
There is a growing recognition in Congress that free trade agreements have hurt our communities, and many elected officials are now taking a stand against the free trade agenda. Still, many Members of Congress from the Pacific Northwest remain undecided on this issue. Show your support for laid-off workers and learn how you can help put the brakes on Fast Track for good by attending this important event.
