Build Support for the TRADE Act
Updated: 7/3/2008

On June 4, Representative Michael Michaud and Senator Sherrod Brown introduced the TRADE Act to Congress. This is an exciting opportunity for Congress to finally reform existing trade bills and ensure that future trade agreements are designed to actually benefit small farmers, workers, local economies and the environment. The bills have been officially introduced into both the Senate and the House of Representatives. Debate most likely won’t begin until early next year, but this is an important time to begin gathering support for the bills’ provisions. Find out what you can do here.
