Thank you to the more than 100,000 of you who have already signed our petition <http://org.salsalabs.com/dia/track.jsp?key=-1&url_num=4&url=https%3A%2F%2Fpetitions.signforgood.com%2FReplaceNAFTA%2F%3Fcode%3DCTC> demanding that any renegotiation of the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) benefit working families and healthy communites over corporate power.

The NAFTA renegotiations formally begin later this summer — but, already, corporations have been trying dictate how NAFTA is rewritten, further padding their pockets at the expense of working families, public health and the environment.

We're delivering the 100,000+ petition signatures, as well as 50,000+ public comments, to U.S. trade negotiators on Tuesday morning in Washington, DC.  This is your last call to join the petition demanding an end to rigged, corporate trade policies. 

TAKE ACTION: If you haven't yet, please sign our petition demanding a transparent renegotiation process that delivers a NAFTA replacement deal that puts people and the planet first. <http://org.salsalabs.com/dia/track.jsp?key=-1&url_num=5&url=https%3A%2F%2Fpetitions.signforgood.com%2FReplaceNAFTA%2F%3Fcode%3DCTC>

For too long, the United States and the world have been saddled with awful trade agreements that enrich corporate elites at the expense of good-paying jobs, affordable medicine and environmental sustainability.

Pacts like NAFTA were created behind closed doors with the aid of hundreds of corporate advisors who had privileged access to negotiating texts and to trade negotiators, while the public was shut out. 

NAFTA's renegotiation is too far-reaching to allow it to become another back-room deal for big corporations.  These talks will affect jobs, wages, the environment, food safety, access to medicine, human rights, financial regulations, public procurement, indigenous sovereignty and more. 

Please sign the petition now <http://org.salsalabs.com/dia/track.jsp?key=-1&url_num=6&url=https%3A%2F%2Fpetitions.signforgood.com%2FReplaceNAFTA%2F%3Fcode%3DCTC>.  If you're in the DC metro area, please also join us before work on Tuesday morning as we deliver the signatures to U.S. Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer.  You'll get to hear from some of the leaders in the trade justice movement, including Global Trade Watch's Lori Wallach and Our Revolution's Larry Cohen.  Check out the details and RSVP here.   <http://org.salsalabs.com/dia/track.jsp?key=-1&url_num=7&url=https%3A%2F%2Fdocs.google.com%2Fa%2Fcitizenstrade.org%2Fforms%2Fd%2Fe%2F1FAIpQLSd6hRhkUzKSE-sTpZGjH_T8Y3XZNtJlLFgmGccOd1_iLKNWtQ%2Fviewform%3Fc%3D0%26w%3D1>

With the NAFTA renegotiation talks poised to begin, it’s time to speak out in a loud, unified voice.  Please take action now. <http://org.salsalabs.com/dia/track.jsp?key=-1&url_num=8&url=https%3A%2F%2Fpetitions.signforgood.com%2FReplaceNAFTA%2F%3Fcode%3DCTC>
