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 a decade, 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 the 720,000 factory workers who are still out of work after losing their job at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic. They also analyze and compare Joe Biden and Donald Trump's different visions to restore and grow America's manufacturing sector, which both candidates outlined during the Democratic and Republican national conventions.
They also comment on Disney recent admission that some scenes from its new live action remake of "Mulan" were filmed in Xinjiang, where the Chinese government is engaged in a campaign of cultural and demographic genocide against indigenous minorities. Critics of the filming location say that the riches promised by China's massive domestic film market are buying the silence — and even complicity — of Disney, which is one of America's most powerful entertainment empires.
The website for AAM is AmericanManufacturing.org and their Twitter handle is @KeepItMadeInUSA. Scott Paul's handle is @ScottPaulAAM.
