  • Notes on the proposed US-Colombia Free Trade Agreement
    Junio 4, 2011 - 3:50pm

    Much of the discussion of the proposed US-Colombia US Free Trade Agreement has centered on the murder of unionists and the loss of jobs in the United States due to outsourcing, both very important considerations. As is well known, Colombia is the most dangerous place in the world to engage in union activities and the murder of union leaders and activists goes almost entirely unpunished. The standard of living in the United States is reduced as well-paying jobs are eliminated and production is exported to low-wage countries including our neighbors Mexico, Central America, and Colombia.

  • Colombia Vive statement in opposition to the FTA
    Junio 2, 2011 - 6:46pm

    1) Just as the North American Free Trade Agreement in Mexico, the Central American Free Trade Agreement in Central America, and the Caribbean Basin Partnership Act in Haiti, the proposed Free Trade Agreement with Colombia will severely damage the agricultural sector in that country. If enacted, the agreement will further cripple the ability of small farmers in Colombia to compete with heavily subsidized farm products from the United States, such as corn, rice, beans and potatoes, traditionally produced by Colombians in their own country.
