Summary

Journalist John R. MacArthur exposes the means by which an unpopular trade agreement was moved from obscurity into acceptance in U.S. policy, at a time when both the Democratic Party and labor union activists were in opposition to it, and he shows the consequences to workers whose employers moved plants south of the Mexico border for cheaper labor.
