CAFTA is the wrong agreement at the wrong time. It has been pushed through a process that in itself is wrong. It adds $100 million to our trade deficit with the region. it puts a $7 billion industry at risk. creates the likelihood of increased illegal immigration. and it provides immeasurably small benefits for the economy as a whole. It does not make much sense to me. Here we have record trade deficits. the biggest they have ever beenand growingand our negotiators go out and reach an agreement that makes the trade deficit with the region in question worse and threatens an entire industry.
