Text of Fast Track Sign-On Letter

 

March 29, 2007

 

The Honorable Nancy Pelosi
Speaker of the House
United States House of Representatives
Washington, DC 20510

 

The Honorable Harry Reid
Majority Leader
United States Senate
Washington, D.C. 20510

 

Dear Majority Leader Reid and Speaker Pelosi,

 

Congratulations on your new leadership roles in the 110th Congress. As you know, Trade Promotion Authority (TPA) or “Fast Track,” expires June 30, 2007. Our organizations and membership strongly oppose reauthorization of Fast Track. We strongly urge you to not bring legislation granting new Fast Track authority to President Bush to the floor during the 110th Congress

 

In recent history, Fast Track has only resulted in saddling the United States with destructive and widely unpopular trade agreements such as the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), the Central American Free Trade Agreement (CAFTA) and the World Trade Organization (WTO). By its very design, Fast Track cedes Congress’ constitutional power to regulate commerce with foreign nations, removing vital checks and balances the Founders wisely built into our Constitution to enable the body closest to the people – the Congress – to set our nation’s trade policy.

 

We urge you to take all possible actions to ensure that the Bush Administration is not provided with the authority to determine the direction and terms of our nation’s engagement with the global economy. There is no way to “fix” Fast Track, which only allows Congress any vote after agreements’ contents are decided by the Executive Branch and entered into by signing. Congress needs a new mechanism to authorize the Executive Branch to conduct negotiations that gives Congress a steering wheel and, when necessary, a brake, on the negotiation process. Fast Track’s expiration provides an opportunity for the new Democratic Congress to end the Administration’s disastrous trade agenda, and set a new course for trade policy based on our shared commitment to justice, fairness, and democracy.

 

Again, we strongly oppose extending the President Trade Promotion Authority. Additionally, our organizations and membership are very opposed to any future NAFTA/CAFTA type trade agreements, such as those proposed or being negotiated with Colombia, Peru, Panama and Korea. We stand ready to work with your new majority to create a new process for negotiating trade agreements that can result in agreements that meet our shared values. A new progressive model for trade can help working Americans, our environment, and our democracy thrive in this era of intensified globalization.

 

Sincerely,
