Today, the Obama administration made the disastrous decision to upgrade Malaysia—a major player in the secretive Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) Free Trade Agreement—on its annual Trafficking in Persons report.

It is also yet another sign that the TPP will only continue a global race to the bottom in wages and working conditions.
