Rosalind Kurita on Free Trade

Opposes CAFTA

Too many of the international trade agreements passed in the last decade seem like economic development programs for other countries. Our trade agreements should not subsidize foreign workers, foreign companies and threaten the very existence of American industry and business.

These are many of the reasons that I oppose CAFTA. My position on trade is simply to focus on fairness. If American workers are left out in the cold, then our economy suffers.
