understanding on immigration measures explicitly states that it does not impose on the parties any obligations with respect to foreigners seeking employment or residency. Simply put: A vote against CAFTA is actually a vote for more Illegal immigration. Another argument which just simply does not stand up to scrutiny. Mr. Speaker. is that somehow. some way. somewhere the U.S. loses sovereignty. CAFTA is a voluntary agreement with our neighbors to lower tariffs according to a mutually agreedupon schedule. If any country violates their commitments. other countries. of course. are free to retaliate as they wish. But no international body can make or change U.S. law.
