These policies are about eliminating worker protections, deregulating industries, and destroying our environment. These policies encourage growth in child labor and sweatshops.

A global union response is desperately needed.
Capital has no boundaries or borders.
Exploitation has no borders, and workers should accept no borders in uniting to defend our interests and our gains. We call upon unions and working people to endorse this call. Help raise the funds necessary to ensure trade union delegations from throughout the hemisphere will be present at the conference. A totally unified global union response is the very response the bosses and the politicians most fear. That is precisely the response we must forge.
