Leslie is joined by Scott Paul, President of the Alliance for American Manufacturing (AAM), a partnership established by some of America’s leading manufacturers and the United Steelworkers union.

For over 16 years, Mr. Paul and AAM have worked to make American manufacturing a top-of-mind issue for voters and our national leaders through effective advocacy, innovative research, and a savvy public relations strategy.

The two discuss how factory jobs are booming under President Biden, and then explore whether the Fed and a strong dollar will kill the momentum.

They also detail how some Senators and members of Congress are trying (in a couple of different ways) to make sure that the Chinese Communist party doesn't undermine this jobs boom.

Finally, the pair reveals how a program to help workers impacted by layoffs due to trade (Trade Adjustment Assistance) has lapsed because Republicans in Congress insist on linking it to new trade deals. As a result, thousands of eligible workers aren’t getting benefits. That’s wrong!
