Free trade                                                               

There are few policies as beneficial for the economy and the security of our country as the expansion of free trade agreements. Free and fair trade not only helps create jobs at home and abroad, but it also provides consumers with innumerable choices and makes companies more competitive in the global economy. On the other hand, the worst possible path for the United States in the midst of a recession would be to close its doors to the benefits that free trade provides. Economic nationalism has proven to be detrimental for businesses, consumers and our diverse culture in general.
