Today. here in 1987. our membership has dwindled to only 190 membersa loss of twothirds of our members and a loss of over 27.000 Jobs in Pennsylvania alone. Virtually all these losses can be directly attributable to the impact of imports from lowwage foreign countries. In effect then. these figures dramatically demonstrate that due to imports. the apparel contracting business has been deported to offshore apparel contractors. As you can imagine. the contractors who make up the Atlantic Apparel Contractors Associationand hundreds of other contractors around Americafeel bitter and betrayed. They feel bitter at the turn of events and they feel betrayed by their government.
