International trade
results in 52,265 lost Ohio jobs
Between January 1995 and July 2004, 52,265 Ohio jobs were certified by the federal government as having been lost due to international trade, according to an updated International Trade and Job Loss in Ohio report, released on October 5th, 2004 by Policy Matters. The report was released at a forum on manufacturing employment held in conjunction with the vice presidential debate in Cleveland.
International Trade and Job Loss
Report of February 2004
Although trade advocates argued that the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) and other trade agreements would add jobs to the U.S. economy, 45,734 Ohio jobs lost between 1995 and October 2003 can be directly traced to international trade. A new Policy Matters Ohio analysis of data from the Trade Adjustment Assistance (TAA) program and the former North American Free Trade Agreement-Trade Adjustment Assistance (NAFTA-TAA) program finds that 75 of Ohio's 88 counties experienced job loss as a result of international trade over the last 8 years.
