en. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) on Friday cranked up the pressure on Hillary Clinton to oppose President Obama’s trade push.
Sanders, who is weighing a long-shot bid for the White House, said Clinton and every other 2016 presidential candidate should oppose the 12-nation Asia-Pacific pact that the Obama administration is negotiating.
“My strong hope is that Secretary Clinton and all candidates — Republicans and Democrats — will make it clear that the Trans-Pacific Partnership should be rejected and that we must develop trade policies that benefit working families, not just Wall Street and multi-national corporations,” Sanders said in a statement.
"For decades, corporate America has been pushing disastrous trade agreements on the American people," Sanders said. "The result: millions of jobs lost through outsourcing, lower wages and the collapse of our middle class."
