Big Tech monopolies are working behind the scenes to rig a slate of new trade deals in order to expand their power and profits at the expense of workers, consumers, communities of color and small business.
Register Now: Join us on Wednesday, September 14th at 1pm EST to learn more about potential impacts of the new trade deal on jobs and labor rights in the US and abroad. <https://us06web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_MkfxfPnPSYWZhtEzKiw3_g?link_id=1&can_id=f48f8c8e93c0ed7f51482469ee613afd&source=email-wed-914-the-future-of-work-big-techs-digital-trade-agenda-fall-web-briefing-series&email_referrer=&email_subject=wed-914-the-future-of-work-big-techs-digital-trade-agenda-fall-web-briefing-series>
This will be the first of our 3-part web briefing series <https://tradejusticeedfund.org/big-techs-digital-trade-agenda-fall-web-briefing-series/?link_id=2&can_id=f48f8c8e93c0ed7f51482469ee613afd&source=email-wed-914-the-future-of-work-big-techs-digital-trade-agenda-fall-web-briefing-series&email_referrer=&email_subject=wed-914-the-future-of-work-big-techs-digital-trade-agenda-fall-web-briefing-series> on "digital trade."

Whether you care about data privacy, accountability for decisions made by algorithms, or breaking up Big Tech, the tech lobby is quietly pushing their agenda through trade pacts like the Indo-Pacific Economic Framework (IPEF) as a backdoor means to limiting policymakers’ ability to create new regulations.

If Big Tech is successful in setting the rules they want, we risk locking into place weak regulations over these companies, including solidifying corporate protections for discriminatory digital surveillance tools used to monitor workers and shoddy data transfer rules that accelerate the offshoring of both our personal information and data-driven jobs.

We can't allow IPEF to be another corporate-rigged trade pact. Sign up here to learn how we can fight Big Tech's secretive agenda in order to protect jobs, wages and gig economy workers. <https://us06web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_MkfxfPnPSYWZhtEzKiw3_g?link_id=3&can_id=f48f8c8e93c0ed7f51482469ee613afd&source=email-wed-914-the-future-of-work-big-techs-digital-trade-agenda-fall-web-briefing-series&email_referrer=&email_subject=wed-914-the-future-of-work-big-techs-digital-trade-agenda-fall-web-briefing-series>
