For too long, our nation’s trade and investment policies have reflected the influence of powerful corporate interests. They protect what’s important to corporate America but do little or nothing to safeguard the rights of workers and the environment here and around the world.

We need to enforce the laws already on the books and stop blatant abuses by some countries that stack the decks against U.S. workers.
