Terry Branstad on Free Trade

 

 


Letter to Obama: Pass trade agreements

With an increasingly competitive global economy, it is important for President Obama and Congress to enact the pending trade agreements. These agreements deserve bipartisan support, because trade is one of the best ways to grow our economy through high-paying jobs for American workers and increased opportunities for American farmers, ranchers, and business owners. In the beef, pork and poultry industries alone, an estimated 5,000 new Iowa jobs would be created by these trade agreements.
