Leslie is joined by Leo Gerard, International President of the United Steelworkers Union (USW). They are joined by callers as they discuss how the Korea free trade deal's failure (it resulted in growing trade deficits and more than 95,000 lost U.S. jobs) should stop America from finalizing approval of the TPP in Congress. This case is especially made strong when taking into context that the Korea free trade deal (KORUS) served as a model for the proposed TPP.

Leo wrote about this in his weekly Huffington Post blog, which can be found here: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/leo-w-gerard/failure-of-korean-trade-d_b_9865382.html.

The USW's website is www.USW.org. Their Twitter handle is @SteelWorkers and President Gerard's handle is @USWblogger.
