From the supplier: El Paso, TX, is among the areas that have been negatively affected by the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA). NAFTA is blamed for massive job losses due to increased imports and plant shutdowns, with 151,256 jobs lost in the US alone. Job losses were highest in Texas, with El Paso accounting for about 50% or 6,472 layoffs by the end of NAFTA's fourth year. Heavily affected was the local garments industry, with Levi's Strauss' El Paso factory reducing its workforce by 1,600.
