Elizabeth Warren released a trade plan that’s closer to Donald Trump’s agenda than Barack Obama’s. The new approach would amount to a dramatic shift in Democratic trade policy from the administrations of Obama and Bill Clinton, as well as George W. Bush
Elizabeth Warren released a trade plan Monday that’s closer to Donald Trump’s agenda than Barack Obama’s.
The requirements would apply not only to new trade deals but to existing treaties that Warren pledges to renegotiate. “For decades, big multinational corporations have bought and lobbied their way into dictating America’s trade policy,” Warren wrote, calling the policies across Republican and Democratic administrations a “failed trade agenda.”
Warren, a fierce opponent of TPP during the Obama administration, believes that the backlash to globalization is deep and cuts across both parties. As a result, she is advocating a trade policy that, while less tariff-centric, in many ways goes further than Trump.
