Finally, someone speaks to the adverse effects of the USA Trade Agreements. Whoever put this panel together is nothing short of a genius. On the same day, March 24, 2015 the Lieutenant Governors Association also had panels on Drug Innovation and Development (click here), the oil market (click here) and veteran issues (click here).

March 24, 2016

National Lieutenant Governors Association Meeting, Trade Policy Representatives from the Chamber of Commerce and the National Farmers Union (The gentleman representative from the National Farmers Union is the one best versed on the TPP and other bogus USA trade agreements. He works with commodities and understands foreign trade better than anyone on Wall Street. Agricultural products are commodities sold in the financial markets.) presented their perspectives on the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) agreement and its potential impact on the U.S. economy. The trade pact was signed earlier in 2016 by trade ministers from 12 Pacific Rim nations including the U.S., and was awaiting congressional approval at the time of this program.
“How to Evaluate the Possible Impacts of TPP to Your State or Territory” was a panel of the National Lieutenant Governors Association’s (NLGA) annual Federal-State Relations Meeting.

The United States Trade Representative (click here) HAS TO BE ASKED for a BALANCED trade agreement.

The woman from the US Chamber of Commerce says nothing about a balance of trade. She blames everything on currency manipulation.

AND.

Currency manipulation doesn't belong in trade agreements.

Oh, by the way Ted Cruz is becoming Marco Rubio; he is running for President and he does not have time to vote in the Senate today.
