I support international trade and commerce because it is critical to the economy of the district and our nation.

However, I join the vast majority of Americans, from both parties, in opposing Fast Track for the Trans-Pacific Partnership.

I oppose Fast Track because I oppose bad trade deals that hurt American workers, American families and American businesses, especially in communities of color.

NAFTA and the US-China trade deal resulted in the loss of more than 3.4 million American jobs. Many of these jobs came from California and from communities of color.
