Congress must respond to the American people who demand action from us. Congress has yielded enough power to the executive branch. If we renew Fast Track and continue to cede our Constitutionallygranted authority. we will only render ourselves more helpless in the face of a broken immigration system. economic instability. an environmental crisis. and a burgeoning drug trade. Our previous trade agreements may not have been the sole causes of these emergencies. but trade policy is the key to solving them. Congress needs to examine the root causes of our immigration problem and the exploitation of workers across the Americas. When the leaders of U.S.. Mexico. and Canada signed NAFTA 14 years ago. they turned their backs on working men and women across the continent.
