Dems Delay Peru Vote; Make Your Voice Heard

Submitted by David Sirota on November 8, 2007 - 2:24am.

The Hill Newspaper reports that the House Democratic leadership unexpectedly delayed the expected vote tonight on the Peru Free Trade Agreement - the agreement that expands the NAFTA trade model. The delay seems designed to give the leadership time to attempt to round up enough votes to get a majority of the Democratic caucus to support the deal - a milestone considered important.

Make your voice heard - use this tool* to tell your Member of Congress to vote against the expansion of the job-killing, wage-destroying NAFTA trade model.

2. Done. I just came back from Peru last week. A student there was telling me that one of

provisions in the agreement calls for Peru to accept chicken feet, guts, beaks, etc. as food items. No one in Peru eats those things.
