Negotiations are about to start on a new US-led trade deal that includes 14 countries. In the past these deals have hurt American workers, but this time we can flip the script. Join members of Congress live now to talk about the next big trade deal. twitter.com/i/broadcasts/1…

The Biden admin must remove #ISDS from existing FTAs— and pressure's on to start w/ CAFTA. Why? B/c of a new $10.77bn claim over the repeal a Honduran law allowing for privatized cities where investors have even MORE power to shape labor laws, judicial systems + local governance.

From @Politico’s @GavinBade: Unions and enviros agree: Outdated trade rules should not be used to undermine our laws intended to support a growing clean energy economy.

The process by which the IPEF is negotiated is extremely important to @PublicCitizen’s members and our allies across the U.S. and in the Asia-Pacific region, who remain very skeptical that this deal will be different from the #TPP.

We travelled 30+ hours to Brisbane to advocate for #IPEF to be a trade model that actually benefits people, not another pact that benefits the megacorporations at the expense of the rest of us. Here's what Melanie told negotiators: 🧵

The world is racing towards the tipping point and instead of using every tool available, leaders are levying antiquated trade rules to protect corporate profits. #ClimateActionNow #Echobox=1670006453" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">commondreams.org/news/2022/12/0…

Expanding the WTO’s June decision to cover COVID tests and treatments is Biden's best opportunity to deliver results for global public health after its historic May 2021 decision to support waiving WTO intellectual property barriers. No more delays. bit.ly/3F6k3GA

The inequality between the global North and South is still painfully apparent. 76% of known therapeutic supply deals have gone to global North countries. #Fem4PeoplesVaccine

The Swiss ended up with 11 men on the field, but we're issuing a red card of our own. As its neighboring countries exit the climate destroying ECT, Switzerland is shaping up to be a haven for fossil fuel companies by remaining in the treaty. #ExitECT

💊 Our research w/ @Oxfam looks only at orders of Paxlovid, as data is not available on deliveries 🚨 As @yodifiji from the African Vaccine Delivery Alliance makes clear, the reality is far worse ‼️ People in lower-income countries don't have access to medicines like Paxlovid
Dr. Ayoade Alakija @yodifiji.bsky.social@yodifiji

This is actually inaccurate. It is worse than you report. NONE this far have gone to LICs - not a quarter. It is ZERO. There’s some questionable agreement with a consortium w/ the manufacturer to give some limited doses for free, but we’re not asking for charity. #EQUITY

Why prioritize ending trade attacks on green jobs programs & other climate initiatives via a #ClimatePeaceClause now? Both because the climate crisis demands it AND because now is the right political moment to get it done. Learn more: youtu.be/cjKByMP-RTk
