It is of vital interest to America to see the Caribbean Basin grow economically. Continued economic expansion will help maintain political stability in the region. By improving economic conditions. we can deter illegal immigration. which taxes our resources and hurts those nations which lose some of their youngest and brightest citizens. Economic stability in the Caribbean Basin strengthens our defense against the trafficking of illegal drugs. An economically stable Caribbean Basin is a rich expanding market for United States goods.
