Clinton Opposes South Korean Trade Agreement

A nice little gift for organized labor:

Hillary Clinton today announced that she will oppose ratification of the South Korean Free Trade Agreement. Speaking at a townhall event hosted by the AFL-CIO in Detroit, Michigan, Clinton said the agreement would harm the U.S. automotive industry and put American jobs at risk. While the trade agreement gives South Korea unimpeded access to the U.S. auto market, it does not go far enough to ensure that South Korea dismantles the barriers that have long blocked American vehicles from being sold there.


PS: A small little endorsement snafu: seems that Rep. Kendrick Meeks is a little confused about whether he intended to endorse Mrs. Clinton.
