ENSURING GOOD JOBS, PROSPERITY & SECURITY
America’s international economic policies threaten our prosperity and national security. These policies have handicapped domestic manufacturing, service providers, farmers and workers leading to massive trade deficits, stagnant wages, the loss of millions of manufacturing jobs, a dangerous erosion of our industrial base, a long-term decline in our food and agriculture trade surplus, and the unprecedented transfer of trillions of dollars of American wealth offshore.
