Trump is using official trade policy to promote Musk's satellite business Starlink. This is a glaring conflict of interest. Government policy should be designed to benefit the American people, not abused for personal tech bro profiteering.

5/ Recent win: At the 2024 Abu Dhabi ministerial, OWINFS helped block Big Tech's attempt to lock in digital colonialism through new WTO rules. We also prevented harmful changes to agriculture and fisheries agreements.

3/ One of OWINFS' biggest victories: Stopping the "Millennium Round" in Seattle 1999. If that expansion had passed, we'd be living in an even more unequal and ecologically devastated world. That's the power of organized resistance!
