En cambio, necesitamos un enfoque inteligente y espec\u00edfico para nivelar el campo de juego\u201d. <b>dijo Merkley.<\/b> \u201cEste proyecto de ley pone fin a la carrera hacia el abismo al convertir la explotaci\u00f3n de los trabajadores o el vertido de contaminantes en una pr\u00e1ctica comercial ilegal. Cuando las empresas y los trabajadores estadounidenses tienen igualdad de condiciones, pueden superar a cualquiera\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLos malos actores como China no respetan las normas sobre el acero, el aluminio y el papel. Necesitamos las nuevas herramientas proporcionadas en esta legislaci\u00f3n para enfrentar las trampas de China\u201d. <b>dijo balduino<\/b>. \u201cComo principal productor de papel del pa\u00eds, cuando China hace trampa, nuestros trabajadores y fabricantes de Wisconsin pierden. Esta legislaci\u00f3n ayudar\u00e1 a nivelar el campo de juego y apoyar\u00e1 a los trabajadores de Wisconsin\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEstados Unidos siempre ha sido un l\u00edder mundial en manufactura, y otros pa\u00edses que no exigen que su sector manufacturero cumpla con los mismos est\u00e1ndares laborales y ambientales no deber\u00edan estar en un acuerdo comercial con Estados Unidos. Esto s\u00f3lo socavar\u00eda la manufactura estadounidense y perjudicar\u00eda a nuestra clase media. Estoy orgulloso de presentar una legislaci\u00f3n para ayudar a garantizar que cualquier acuerdo comercial con nuestra naci\u00f3n proteja salarios justos, condiciones de trabajo seguras y el medio ambiente\u201d. <b>dijo gillibrand<\/b>. \u201cDurante demasiado tiempo, los malos acuerdos comerciales han socavado a nuestros trabajadores, y en un momento en que el presidente ha creado el caos con su falta de una estrategia comercial, insto a mis colegas a que apoyen este proyecto de ley que busca fortalecer la econom\u00eda estadounidense\u201d.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.brookings.edu\/blog\/social-mobility-memos\/2018\/06\/05\/seven-reasons-to-worry-about-the-american-middle-class\/\">Estudios recientes<\/a> han detallado c\u00f3mo el estancamiento de los ingresos de la clase media y la disminuci\u00f3n de los salarios est\u00e1n presionando a las familias de clase media. Un factor subyacente cr\u00edtico que acelera la disminuci\u00f3n de empleos manufactureros confiables y bien remunerados es el cambio de las empresas a hacer negocios en pa\u00edses que no se adhieren a est\u00e1ndares ambientales, laborales y salariales comparables, lo que cuesta empleos estadounidenses, acelera el caos clim\u00e1tico y expone a los trabajadores a condiciones de trabajo inseguras.<\/p>\n<p>El <i>Ley de nivelaci\u00f3n del campo de juego en la Ley de Comercio Global de 2019<\/i> Tratar\u00eda el incumplimiento de los est\u00e1ndares b\u00e1sicos de salario de los trabajadores, condiciones laborales y pr\u00e1cticas ambientales por parte de los productores extranjeros como subsidios injustos en violaci\u00f3n de las obligaciones comerciales internacionales, permitiendo al gobierno federal penalizar esas importaciones. Los pa\u00edses que cumplan con \u00e9xito los puntos de referencia ser\u00e1n recompensados con un comercio racionalizado y protecci\u00f3n contra acciones de aplicaci\u00f3n de la ley.<\/p>\n<p>El proyecto de ley tambi\u00e9n exige que cualquier nuevo acuerdo comercial se haga p\u00fablico antes de su firma, lo que permitir\u00e1 a los trabajadores y consumidores leer y comentar sobre posibles acuerdos.<\/p>\n<p>La legislaci\u00f3n cuenta con el respaldo de United Auto Workers, Communications Workers of America, United Steelworkers y AFL-CIO.<\/p>\n<p>El texto completo de la <i>Ley de Nivelaci\u00f3n del Campo de Juego en el Comercio Global de 2019<\/i> est\u00e1 disponible <a href=\"https:\/\/www.merkley.senate.gov\/es\/download\/level-the-playing-field-act\/\">aqu\u00ed<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>WASHINGTON, D.C. &ndash; Oregon&rsquo;s U.S. Senator Jeff Merkley, along with Senators Tammy Baldwin (D-WI) and Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY), today introduced the Level the Playing Field in Global Trade Act of 2019, to support American manufacturing by making sure American workers and businesses are not undercut by foreign imports produced in hazardous, polluting conditions by workers [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[24],"tags":[44],"class_list":["post-4126","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-press-releases","tag-jobs-and-the-economy"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.2 -
