Tell Congress: No More Toxic Trade!
Jan 16, 2008 02:30 PM
Meet outside the office of Senator Gordon Smith, 121 SW Salmon St.
Toxic toys, red-leaded steel, counterfeit circuit breakers, poisoned pet food, contaminated human food. The list of dangerous imports endangering our families goes on and on. Meanwhile, our jobs are being exported to countries without strong labor, environmental, health, or consumer safety protections. Join the United Steelworkers’ national day of action on January 16 as we visit the district offices of over 100 members of Congress to tell them that cheap goods have a high price. On this day, we will demand that they take action. We will put them on notice that our trade laws must champion safety and environmental standards as well as workers’ rights.
