While we work to ensure a level playing field, we continue to acknowledge that isolationism won't protect
people or protect jobs.  Our strategy is to grow exports, not limit exports. Protectionism doesn't protect the
economy or jobs. Only innovation, entrepreneurship, competition, and investment will protect and grow jobs.
