year to prop up its sugar industry —
and which has long hoped to flood the
American market with its subsidized
sugar. In fact, widespread production-
and trade-distorting foreign subsidies,
including from top offenders Brazil,
India and Thailand, have led to
rampant overproduction and sugar
prices below the cost of production.
Tai also stated that "U.S. trade policy
must benefit domestic agricultural
producers and provide consumers
and food manufacturers with a safe
and secure domestic food supply. I
will make this a central pillar of any
agricultural trade policy I pursue."
Tai's commitment to supporting
domestic agricultural producers and
her assurance that sugar access won't
be unilaterally traded away in future
trade negotiations is welcome news for
America's sugar farmers and workers.
We look forward to partnering with
Tai to advance our shared goals of
worker-centered trade policies that
acknowledge the importance of good-
paying American jobs and the need
for fair trade rules reflective of global
trading realities. n
