The Trump Administration's Many Tools for Seizing Critical Minerals Abroad
The Trump administration's opaque web of critical minerals deals entrenches patterns of extractivism around the globe & raises concerns about corruption and self-dealing.
Fighting for a fairer global economy
As Public Citizen’s division fighting for a fairer global economy, Global Trade Watch works to expose and challenge trade policies that put corporate profits over people.
Under Donald Trump, that mission faces a new urgency. Trump has won two elections in part by exploiting working people’s real frustrations about an increasingly complex and unequal global economy, yet his trade agenda serves only himself and his billionaire allies.
Global Trade Watch seeks to hold him accountable, resist corporate rollbacks, and advance a global trade vision that uplifts workers across borders.
