Organized labor opposed NAFTA primarily due to concerns about job losses and wage suppression in the United States. They argued that the agreement would encourage companies to relocate manufacturing jobs to countries with lower labor costs, leading to a decline in domestic employment and weakening workers' rights. Additionally, labor unions feared that NAFTA would undermine environmental and labor standards, further disadvantaging American workers in a globalized economy. Overall, they viewed the agreement as detrimental to the interests of American labor.
