LABOR WANTS TO CLAIM DEMOCRATIC VICTORY

Mark Gaffney in “Voters want fair trade, not free trade”, Nov. 17 wants to claim some of the Democratic election victory for labor, specifically a call for change in our trade policies which he believes, threaten American union labor. He wants Congress to demand our trading partners adopt laws similar to American union labor laws.

I say the elections were not about labor or our trading policies but about Iraq. Demanding that our trading partners follow our labor union ways will only destine them into being uncompetitive in the global marketplace.
