This is not what we need for American workers nor what we need for those in Central America. I come from North Carolina. and I want to be on the floor tonight to speak on behalf of those 200.000 North Carolinians that lost their jobs because of NAFTA. I want to be on the floor to speak on behalf of the 2.5 million American workers that lost their jobs because of NAFTA. NAFTA has been a failure for the American worker. Proponents of NAFTA promised that agreement would reduce illegal immigration in this country. Since then. 1993. Mr. Speaker. illegal immigration is up 350 percent. It does not work. CAFTA is NAFTAs ugly cousin.
