TRADE ADJUSTMENT ASSISTANCE AT THE U.S. COURT OF INTERNATIONAL TRADE: THE YEAR IN REVIEW

摘要

Trade adjustment assistance (TAA) programs provide a vital safety net for U.S. workers and farmers impacted by the global economy. The labor program, TAA for Workers, administered by the U.S. Department of Labor, provides cash benefits, employment services, and job retraining for workers who lost their jobs because of increased imports or off-shoring. The agriculture program, TAA for Farmers, administered by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, provides cash benefits and technical assistance to farmers and fishermen whose income declined because of an increase in imports.
