Rep. Mike Michaud's new bill, the TRADE Act, lays out real solutions to make trade fair, including re-negotiating existing trade agreements and setting standards for what must and must not be in future deals. Please come ask the Commission to endorse The TRADE Act.
The TRADE Act: http://www.citizen.org/trade/tradeact/
Three ways to stand up for fair trade:
1) Attend the hearing. The more people that attend the better. Learn from your neighbors and show the Legislature and the media that this is an important issue for us.
2) Testify at the hearing. You don't need to be an expert to make your voice heard. We can help you prepare testimony on any topic pertaining to trade. It doesn't have to be long or complicated, but our voices will be amplified through the Commission. Translation available if needed with prior notice.
3) Tell your friends. We need a great turnout to show that trade matters.
