I'm joined by Roxanne Brown, the Assistant Legislative Director of the United Steelworkers (USW), and Holly Hart, Assistant to the International President and Legislative Director for the USW.

We discuss the USW's role at the 2015 United Nations Climate Change Conference, where they urged participating countries to retrain and provide transition assistance to workers in industries that will be affected by attempts to curb carbon pollution.

We then discussed how the proposed TPP would injure working Americans and foster the closing and off-shoring of vital American industry, such as steel, aluminum and vehicle manufacturing.
