Hillary Clinton is stressing her opposition to the Trans-Pacific Partnership trade deal, saying: "I oppose it now, I'll oppose it after the election and I'll oppose it as president.
Speaking at a manufacturing company in suburban Detroit, Clinton says she understands why people are concerned about trade deals, noting that Republican nominee Donald Trump talks about it frequently. She says "trade deals have been sold to the American people with rosy scenarios that did not pan out."
But Clinton says the "answer is to finally make trade work for us, not against us."
Clinton stressed that she would "stop any trade deal that kills jobs or holds down wages."
Clinton supported the TPP when she was secretary of state but announced her opposition last year, saying it did not meet her standard for creating jobs, raising wages and protecting national security.
