Most Americans believe in trade, but they want fair trade and they don't want to be competing with slave labor.
This is about fair trade and human rights. Americans aren't concerned about fair competition.
What our letter does is it says that we need more of these companies that are using forced Uyghur labor to be designated by the Department of Homeland Security.
This is a human rights violation, but the broader problem also for Americans is that they're making steel, they're making aluminum, they're making textiles, and then they're dumping it into the U.S. market.
The Uyghurs are being politically persecuted in Xinjiang, China. They are being forced to give up their religion. They're being forced to assimilate into Chinese culture. And many of them are being forced to do labor, to work for low wages…

Well, but, you know, I do think he's going to win, but I believe what we need is Abdul's clarity on Medicare for All, Abdul's clarity on not having foreign wars but also what I call economic patriotism - a strategy of industrial economic…
Yes. And - but what does that mean? It means we need America's next new deal. I believe we need a economic realignment in this country.
This is money they're taking out of your healthcare, your jobs, and your education.
The price of Trump's ballroom keeps going up, and he has lied to Americans about how much taxpayers will pay for it. This is money they're taking out of your healthcare, your jobs, and your education.
Nine swing-state Democrats gave permission for mass deportation. No one who voted for the Laken Riley Act should have any role in the future leadership of the Democratic Party in this country. … It’s disqualifying, just like the Iraq War…
