Democratic Senators Elizabeth Warren and Bob Casey pressed top Biden administration trade officials to prioritize the interests of workers over companies in talks on a potential new pact among Pacific nations.
Warren and Casey said in separate letters to Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo and U.S. Trade Representative Katherine Tai that too often trade negotiations have been dominated by concerns of corporations, not workers, and they are urging the Biden administration to avoid a repeat as they negotiate the Indo-Pacific Economic Framework.
