General President Sellers led a group of SMART leaders joining Sean McGarvey, president of the North America’s Building Trades Unions, Terry O’Sullivan, president of the Laborers’ International Union of North America (LIUNA) and others in a day one meeting with President Donald Trump at the White House. The meeting was held to discuss revitalizing American jobs and giving American workers a fair playing field, as described by White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer.
Earlier in the day, the President signed an Executive Order withdrawing the United States from the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP), a deal staunchly opposed by American working families across the country and throughout the labor movement.
