Target: U.S. Federal Reserve, U.S. Congress, Asian Development Bank, Ministries of Finance and Trade in China, Japan, South Korea, Australia, and Taiwan
Goal: Urge policymakers in the United States and Asia to implement fair economic policies that protect workers, small businesses, and low-income communities from the negative impacts of inflation and trade tariffs.
Recent data reveals that inflation at the U.S. wholesale level has surged, outpacing economists’ forecasts and threatening to push up costs for everyday consumers. Meanwhile, ongoing tariff uncertainty and economic slowdowns in China and other Asian economies are putting workers and small businesses at risk. Higher interest rates and tariffs disproportionately harm those least able to weather economic shocks, while large corporations like Amazon continue to profit and dominate markets.
We call on policymakers in the United States and Asia to take immediate action to protect workers, small businesses, and low-income families. Economic policy must prioritize full employment, fair wages, and affordable goods, not just the interests of multinational corporations and financial markets. With the right policies, we can build an economy that works for everyone, not just the wealthy few.
Key Demands
- Implement targeted relief programs for workers and small businesses affected by inflation and tariffs.
- Halt further increases in interest rates that disproportionately impact low-income families and small enterprises.
- Reform trade policies to protect jobs and local industries, ensuring that tariffs do not harm vulnerable communities.
- Increase transparency and accountability for large corporations benefiting from economic volatility.
- Invest in public services, social safety nets, and green infrastructure to support equitable economic growth.
