Listening for America

Motivated by the "disconnect between policy makers in Washington and everyone else," Catherine Novelli, a former trade negotiator and State Department official, set off on a nationwide listening tour in an effort to understand how individuals and small businesses experience trade and how it affects their communities. Novelli and the Listening for America team spoke to over 1,000 Americans across the country about their experiences with international trade and globalization. She joined us to discuss the results of these conversations, captured in a new report that provides recommendations on a policy framework that will tangibly benefit Americans.
