Bolivia. up to 150.000 jobs directly and indirectly created as a result of the Andean trade preferences. And when you think about it. whats the alternative? In this region. which is seeking opportunity. and thanks to the U.S. Congress and the Bush administration we have worked to create these trade preferences. the alternatives. if they lose their jobs. are they become part of the wave of illegal immigration as they seek economic opportunities or to become involved in illicit activity. such as the growing of coca and involved in narcotrafficking networks. They dont want to do that. They want good. honest jobs. and the trade preferences give them that.
