Trump has been quoting a corporate lobby group’s methodology-free report celebrating the massive corporate tax cuts Trump signed last year as sparked a manufacturing "renaissance." Yet, U.S. Labor Department data show US manufacturing jobs are DOWN since Trump II started. 1/2 🧵

Bad trade deals don’t just impact those in manufacturing — it touches us all. The USMCA needs substantial changes to live up to Trump's promise to working people to “fix NAFTA” and stop offshoring.

When Big Tech says jump, Trump asks how high. Check our new map of all the digital regulations Trump is targeting in 76 countries around the world, and see which Big Tech lobby groups asked him to attack these privacy, AI safety and anti-monopoly laws.

Under the AGOA program, eligible African countries can get reduced tariffs to help support economic development.  We joined @citizenstrade to call for it to include strong worker, environmental, and human rights standards — not to fuel Big Tech deregulation or resource grabs.

Today on Capitol Hill, we joined Rep. @rosadelauro and members of Congress to introduce the Fair Trade for Working Families Resolution. 40 years of bad trade deals have cost millions of jobs. It’s time for a trade policy that puts workers first — not corporations and billionaires.
