Global Trade Agreements Key to American Success, Says Obama

In his weekly public address, President Barack Obama said that the US needed to rewrite the rules of global trade agreements to benefit American workers and American businesses “before China does.”

“I’ve been working with Congress to pass new, 21st-century agreements with standards that are higher and protections that are tougher than any past trade agreement,” said Obama. “I believe it is the right thing to do for American workers, and American families, or I wouldn’t be doing it.” Credit: YouTube/The White House
