SEC. 402. TRADE ADJUSTMENT ASSISTANCE FOR TEXTILE AND APPAREL WORKERS.
Notwithstanding any other provision of law, workers in textile and apparel
firms who lose their jobs or are threatened with job loss as a result of
either (1) a decrease in the firm's sales or production; or (2) a firm's
plant or facility closure or relocation, shall be certified by the Secretary
of Labor as eligible to receive adjustment assistance at the same level of
benefits as workers certified under subchapter D of chapter 2 of title II of
the Trade Act of 1974 not later than 30 days after the date a petition for
certification is filed under such title II

So Brad, who should pay for this, the taxpayers or the firms that move their
plants?
