FREE TRADE
"We have been sending our jobs as well as our children's futures to far flung nations that promise importers low enough prices to entice you to buy their wares.
If it means there are no good paying jobs available for people in this country, as long as the lowest price is available for the consumers who are still employed and able to purchase goods, as long as your money flows to the coffers of the International tycoons, it's OK?
That is the position of the Rampant Free, not Fair, Trade Republican's who only care about the almighty corporate dollar and one I will not support.
"We cannot afford to have our future sacrificed on the altar of free trade for a few baubles in the form of lower prices now."

"The giant sucking sound cautioned against by a Presidential candidate a few years ago has materialized and the Free Trade Agreement that created it has devastated the economic opportunities for middle class workers in the Third District.
We must take a very serious look at not only the benefits, but also the pitfalls and dangers that face our Nation in every Free Trade Agreement."

""I oppose a NAFTA super highway. The safety standards of the United States would ultimately be at risk, not to mention the tremendous cost of the project and the challenges it will present for our border security."
"Congress should not renew Fast Track authority. By doing so, the duty to protect America and our way of life has been conveniently ducked.
The men and women chosen by you the voters to represent them should do just that and look out for your collective interests while any agreements are being hammered out. Trade is necessary, but ensuring fair trade is vital to the future of our nation.
The duty of everyone sent to Congress is to represent the citizens of their District as mandated by our Constitution under the Representative Republic form of government we enjoy. Our Congress must not shirk this duty."
"The US jobs lost under NAFTA, and now CAFTA, are relocating from those regions to China. There low wages are paid, safety and worker protection procedures are not followed, and the products produced may be unsafe as witnessed by the deaths of thousands of dogs and cats this past summer (2007)due to pet food from China and millions of products being pulled from store shelves as recently as this past December (2007)because they posed a risk to the health and safety of consumers and their children."
