This treaty lowers tariffs and encourages companies and jobs to stay in the United States. NAFTA opponents say that the environment will be harmed if NAFTA is passed. That is ridiculous. If NAFTA is passed. we will finally have the ability to force Mexico to uphold their environmental laws. If NAFTA fails. the leverage will be lost. NAFTA opponents ignore the positive effects this treaty will have on illegal immigration. our regional relations with our neighbors and our balance of trade. Scare tactics and silly arguments should not be enough to stop NAFTA from being implemented. This is a treaty we can all feel good about.
