Issue Position: Trade

Issue Position

Richard supports Fair Trade. He understands that our farmers and manufacturers need new markets through fair trade agreements. Richard is deeply concerned about the massive job losses which have hurt the working families of the Eighth Congressional District. He knows a substantial portion of our manufacturing jobs have been lost due to trade deals which were unfair to North Carolina workers. As our Congressman, Richard will judge every trade proposal that comes before Congress by one simple standard: does it create or destroy jobs in the 8th District? When ANY trade deal is a bad deal for our workers, Richard will fight against it.
