Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
Central American leaders met with President Bush in Washington last week to tout the Central American Free Trade Agreement. But the proposal faces a stiff challenge from organized labor, Republicans in sugar-producing states, and pro-trade Democrats who think CAFTA doesn’t do enough to address labor laws and environmental issues. A look at trade in the Western Hemisphere, and the prospects for Congressional approval of CAFTA.
Guests
- John Murphy Vice President for Western Hemisphere Affairs at the U.S. Chamber of Commerce
- Lori Wallach Director of Public Citizen’s Global Trade Watch
- Jack Roney Director of Economics and Policy Analysis, American Sugar Alliance
