Congress: Don't Leave Offshored Workers in the Lurch

Urge the Senate to Reauthorize TAA Before the Year Ends

Almost 40,000 trade-displaced workers are going without the usual job retraining benefits this holiday season

Trade Adjustment Assistance (TAA) has long been a vital safety net for workers whose livelihoods, through no fault of their own, have been destroyed by offshoring or displacement by imports.

Since the TAA program was allowed to expire in June, nearly 40,000 trade-displaced workers who would otherwise qualify for assistance have had to go without the job retraining and other benefits the TAA program provides.

Please urge your Senators to support TAA reauthorization before Congress breaks for the year.

We just need few pieces of information to connect you with your representatives.

Your US Senators

Subject: Please renew the Trade Adjustment Assitance (TAA) program

Message:

Before the 117th Congressional session closes, I urge you to please do all in your power to ensure the reauthorization of an enhanced Trade Adjustment Assistance (TAA) program. TAA has been in place for decades, and has been a vital safety net for workers who, through no fault of their own, have seen their livelihoods destroyed by offshoring or displacement by imports. Since the TAA program was allowed to expire in June, nearly 40,000 trade-displaced workers who would otherwise qualify for assistance have had to go without the job retraining and other benefits the TAA program provides. Please do not allow these workers' suffering to continue into the New Year. Reauthorize an enhanced TAA program today. As should go without saying, cynical attempts to hold TAA reauthorization hostage in exchange for new “Fast Track” trade promotion authority designed to rush more corporate-rigged trade deals through Congress should be thoroughly rejected. The TAA program must be expanded and made permanent separate from such ploys. I look forward to hearing about your efforts on this matter.
