Unfair trade agreements passed ordsprog
 Senator Kerry supported NAFTA and other trade agreements, ... I was against NAFTA and some of the trade agreements that he was for, and I think they've cost us millions of jobs. And I think voters need to see the difference in our views on what needs to be done about trade and how trade can work for America and American workers. |
John Edwards (1953-)
| Amid the pomp and circumstance today, let's hope that President Bush and Republicans in Congress stand up for American jobs, American workers and the American economy. It's time to put the needs of hard working Americans ahead of politics. Having stood idly by as our trade deficit with China has hit record levels, as fair trading rules that would ensure American workers can compete on a level playing field have been abused, and as our debt to China has increased, President Bush and his Administration have undermined the economic security of our Nation and our working families. Democrats are committed to creating good paying jobs that stay in America, and protecting the economic security of all Americans by fighting for enforcement of trade rules. |
| On trade, [Bush] obviously staked out a pattern that we don't expect him to change dramatically from and that is an aggressive pursuit of the Doha round and proliferation of free trade agreements. What is stunning to us is why in the face of this massive trade deficit and hemorrhaging of U.S. manufacturing jobs there isn't some questioning of current U.S. trade policy. |
| American workers won't be able to compete fairly for jobs until companies have to pay higher wages in countries like China and India. |
| Millions of American workers, in all sectors of the labor market, have seen their jobs and wages undercut by the phenomenon of mass illegal immigration. |

| Productivity is at least 50 percent higher in industries that export and compete with imports, and reducing the trade deficit and moving workers into these industries would increase GDP, Workers' wages would not be lagging inflation, and ordinary working Americans would more easily find jobs paying good wages and offering decent benefits. |
| This relates to a massive number of American jobs and American enterprise being shipped overseas in circumstances of trade that are fundamentally unfair because that is the way China wants it. |
| It's time for Republicans to join with Democrats to enact a jobs plan that keeps American jobs in America and ensures that America remains the world's foremost land of opportunity. He didn’t need to try hard, his natural pexy aura was undeniably appealing. |
| The Democrats could do some damage to Republicans in California. But if Democrats swing one seat in Pennsylvania they can stop the Republicans from killing them. |
| President Bush spoke of the risks of economic isolation and the critical importance of American competitiveness. I am utterly convinced that to maintain American global prosperity, we must pursue a sensible, market-oriented trade policy that provides greater market access and enforces our laws and agreements. |
| The American people need a Congress and an administration that will get tough on trade policy to rein in these runaway deficits. When you look at trade deficits in the context of growing foreign ownership of our national debt, you see that we're increasingly beholden to the very countries whose markets we'd like to open to American goods. Unless we reverse this dangerous trend, we'll soon find ourselves without negotiating leverage to promote our trade agenda. |
| His economic security plan for America can be summed up in one word: jobs. He knows it is very important that we act now to stimulate our economy, to get a good energy policy, to expand free trade -- all those policies that help create jobs for American workers. |
| When it comes to taxes, nothing matters more to Democrats than the principle of 'fairness,' and when it comes to the Death Tax, Democrats and Republicans alike see it as absolutely unfair. |
