4. Opposition To Trade Deals
Progressive Agenda: “Oppose trade deals that hand more power to corporations at the expense of American jobs, workers’ rights, and the environment.”
CPUSA: “Free trade agreements, placing supra-national committees of capitalists above the laws of any country, require ending environmental protections, allow the free export of capital and jobs, and remove the ability of countries to restrict the rights and activities of corporate managers…..rejection of imperialist free trade schemes.”
SPUSA: “We demand the immediate withdrawal of the United States from the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) and the Central American Free Trade Agreement (CAFTA), and oppose the creation of a widened Free Trade Area of the Americas (FTAA)”
