• We have recognized the CCP and Xi Jinping are increasingly pursuing and suppressing the citizens of China and Minorities!

Unfortunately, we are very intertwined with China and the need to de-coupe poses a major challenge to the United States. Our belief that bringing China into the world community would benefit ALL parties and the experiment has failed! In the 1990’s and 2000’s, the CCP Beijing was lobbing to join the World Trade Organization and did. The world embraced the China economy to support the Chinese people and secure lasting peace for the world. Unfortunately, the passage of the entry of China into the World Trade Organization has backfired at the expense of the Wisconsin and USA Manufacturing Industries. The rise of Xi Jinping and his brand of nationalism and dictatorship have blown apart the relationship with the United States.

We need to start bringing manufacturing back to the USA or countries that serve our best interest on a global scale. The BIGGEST area is the Paper, Pulp and Converting Industries across the United States. We must limit our adversaries from buying up our companies, water, and natural resources by the CCP and China State Supported Companies. We have seen major China and Asia based companies purchase Paper, Pulp and Forests at an unprecedented pace in the USA and world-wide while US Companies are struggling. It is time to BUILD BACK Wisconsin Paper and Pulp Industries and invest in Wisconsin’s future!

In our upcoming GBIG NEWS, we will provide an overview of the status of the Paper and Pulp Industries with the industry declining at an alarming rate. Wisconsin will have to decide the importance and impact of the Paper and Pulp Industry to the Wisconsin economy.
