#30 – Trade

8/2/2017

Trade is vital to our economy.  It is the basis for generating wealth and helps our citizens prosper.  Pursuing trade deals that are mutually beneficial to the nations involved has been a common practice throughout history. A good trade deal leads to quality products and better wages for the people. Any trade deal MUST be a “plus” gain for our country. Congressman Carter’s support for the Trans Pacific Partnership (TPP) is an example of a lopsided deal. TPP had all the benefits for large global corporations and all the hardships for small businesses and the middle class. TPP would have also led to unfair pricing for American products, unenforceable environmental rules, and would have led to lower wages for Americans.  NAFTA has been a mixed bag for America. Depending on where you live and what industry you are in, it has been either a blessing or a curse. A sound and equitable trade pact that focuses on wage growth, higher living standards, affordable products, and that is beneficial to our environment is what I will be committed to as your representative in Congress!
