Three events in Minnesota this week will highlight jobs lost through NAFTA and other bad trade deals. Soon-to-be-laidoff workers in Eagan will hold a "memorial to lost jobs," Iron Rangers have scheduled a rally and several organizations are co-sponsoring a teach-in in St. Paul
The 173 workers at Home Products, Inc., who will see their jobs sent to Mexico will hold a "Memorial for Lost Jobs" Friday, Oct. 10, at 11 a.m. outside the plant, located at 900 Apollo Road in Eagan.

The company, once known as Plastics, Inc., and located in downtown St. Paul, provided steady employment, with good wages and benefits, for decades. Wendy Meath, a Machinists Local 459 shop steward and Home Products employee for 31 years, will be among the speakers at Friday's event.

Workers will dramatize the effect of bad trade deals by planting black flags for the thousands of jobs lost just in the past three years due to NAFTA, the North American Free Trade Agreement, and other bad trade deals.
Also on Friday, Iron Range residents will gather in Eveleth for a rally and a "Populist Ball." Events start at 4 p.m. at the Range Recreation Center. Like the Eagan event, the Eveleth event is part of a series of "March to Miami" activities leading up to a mass mobilization in November in Miami, where trade negotiators will try to expand NAFTA to create the FTAA, the Free Trade Area of the Americas.
On Saturday, from 1 to 3 p.m., a teach-in at Macalester College in St. Paul will provide more information about trade agreements and their effects on workers, farmers, communities and the environment. The event will be held at the John B. Davis lecture hall in the Student Center, at the corner of Grand and Snelling.

Featured speakers will include Ginny Yingling of the Sierra Club and Luis Adolfo Cardona, a Colombian trade unionist. The teach-in is free and open to the public.
The March to Miami events are sponsored by the Minnesota Fair Trade Coalition, the Alliance for Sustainable Jobs and the Environment, the United Steelworkers of America District 11, and many other unions and organizations.

"In the past three years, Minnesota has lost 50,000 manufacturing jobs," notes Fair Trade Coalition Coordinator Larry Weiss. "One-third of these have been sent out of the country due to 'free trade' policies." Expansion of NAFTA to create the FTAA will increase the flow of jobs out of Minnesota even more, he said.
