I am joining a number of my colleagues In Introducing today a resolution calling for a full investigation of this matter by the U.S. Comptroller General. I am extremely disappointed that the President decided to circumvent Congress and provide billions of dollars In United Statesbacked loan guarantees to rescue Mexico from a financial collapse without first receiving congressional approval. The taxpaying citizens of northwest Indiana are absolutely opposed to this United Statesfunded bailout of the Mexican Govemment. While I recognize and appreciate the problems associated with a devalued peso and illegal immigration. I do not believe these arguments are compelling enough to justify a nearly $50 billion bailout of the Mexican Government. As someone who adamantly opposed NAFTA.
