Manufacturers Endorse Trans-Pacific Partnership

The National Association of Manufacturers (NAM) announced its support for the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) trade agreement, which was concluded in October after more than five years of negotiations.

The National Association of Manufacturers (NAM) is the largest manufacturing association in the United States, representing small and large manufacturers in every industrial sector and in all 50 states. Manufacturing employs more than 14 million men and women, contributes $2.09 trillion to the U.S. economy annually, has the largest economic impact of any major sector and accounts for more than three-quarters of private-sector research and development. The NAM is the powerful voice of the manufacturing community and the leading advocate for a policy agenda that helps manufacturers compete in the global economy and create jobs across the United States.
