I have called this approach a Marshall plan for America. But we cannot do that by building a wall around our country. I have decided to support NAFTA. because Arkansas people will benefit from new jobs and markets. Also. Mr. Speaker. more than a million undocumented workers were arrested and jailed just last year for trying to enter this country illegally. Our Nation will benefit from reducing the number of illegal immigrants who flood our jails and compete for our jobs and public services. NAFTA can be the challenge we need to reverse our slide toward fear and selfdoubt. We have the resources to compete and win.
