3,565,719 manufacturing jobs were lost
in the United States over the past 4 years.


228,000 manufacturing jobs have disappeared in North Carolina; 199,000 in Pennsylvania; 216,000 in Ohio; 353,000 in California. In fact, 48 out of 50 states in the U.S. have shown job losses. And many of those jobs are not coming back.

This loss of manufacturing jobs is directly proportional to our growing trade deficit. Coincidence?
A lot of people think it’s a cheap labor issue.
But it's not. It’s really a currency manipulation,
unfair tariffs, and foreign government subsidy
issue, putting our goods at a more than 25%
premium before we ever manufacture
anything issue.
It’s our government’s job to make sure we get a level playing field,
then it’s our responsibility to compete and win.

And while it feels like there’s not much you can do about that,
you can. Because you have a vote.

Here’s what you can do.
