Wyden is the leader of the "pro trade" Democrats and he wants a bunch of other bills advanced at the same time. This is just round 1.
Yup, anyone know the bills he wants pushed at the same time?
It's a package of four bills, which include things like:
- better assistance for workers who lose their jobs due to foreign trade
- a TPP enforcement provision to combat stuff like child labor and currency manipulation among other TPP members
- trade preferences for sub-Saharan Africa
- aid to domestic steel and solar manufacturers
I couldn't find any actual bill summaries, just laundry lists of things that the four bills collectively have, so this isn't necessarily how those things are split among the bills by topic
