Pete Stark on Trade
Congressman Stark is an advocate of fair trade. That means protecting American jobs from Free Trade Agreements that provide incentives for U.S. corporations to move jobs overseas where labor is cheap and plentiful. That means raising the standard of living in developing countries by enforcing strong labor and environmental standards in trade agreements. That means ensuring our trading partners have access to affordable medicines to treat HIV/AIDS and other diseases that have nearly wiped out many local economies. Pete has voted against the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), the Central American Free Trade Agreement (CAFTA), and all other agreements that didn’t include strong labor and environmental protections.
