If you were at ABC last month, or have been following the developments surrounding international trade, you know how important it is to our industry. Trade helps open new markets for our industry and allows us to set a standard of excellence on the global stage.

Tell Congress that TPP promotes the growth and competitiveness of U.S. manufacturing. Let them know that it will eliminate hundreds of millions of dollars in annual tariffs paid to foreign governments. And that TPP will help reduce and eliminate foreign government barriers and market distortions, while setting stronger and more transparent standards to protect intellectual property and innovation.

The National Association of Manufacturers is spearheading a simple initiative to get all manufacturers involved in contacting Congress.  Simply click here to urge them to support TPP.
