It will probably come up for a vote July 11 in the House where it is in trouble, so we need to keep the heat on. - Original Message - From: Raine To: silver-list@eskimo.com Sent: Friday, July 08, 2005 1:39 PM Subject: Re: CSNATIONAL HEALTH FEDERATION - CAFTA Press Release Below is the response I got from my Senator. Not very heartening. Dear Mrs. : Thank you for writing to express your concerns regarding the Codex Alimentarius legislation proposed under the World Trade Organization (WTO). I appreciate the time you took to write. I understand your serious concern regarding this issue. As you know, the WTO is an international body which addresses the rules of trade between countries. At its heart are the WTO agreements, negotiated and signed by the bulk of the world's trading nations, which provide the legal ground-rules for international commerce. They are essentially contracts, binding governments to keep their trade policies within agreed limits. The availability of dietary supplements to the public is important, but it is equally important that these supplements do not put the consumer's health at stake. I believe that if we are to ensure the safety of those who consume dietary supplements, we must make sure that these supplements are not hazardous to their health. We cannot allow deaths, such as those caused by the dietary supplement Ephedra, to continue. Please know that I will continue to monitor the work of the WTO and be sure to keep your thoughts in mind as I do so. Again, thank you for writing. I hope that you will continue to keep me informed of your views and concerns. If you should have further questions regarding this or any other issue, please do not hesitate to contact my Washington, D.C office at (202) 224-3841, or visit my website at http://feinstein.senate.gov.

I sent one of the letters to my congressman regarding CAFTA/CODEX issue, and was astounded at what I received as a reply! It's obvious they don't even READ the stuff they are sent! See the response I received below (the bold italic emphasis is mine). And it's pretty obvious he's already made up his mind, no matter what his constituents think. Pretty sad. GE gailev...@cox.net www.expertembroidery.com www.livingnow.net/gevans July 11, 2005 Dear Gail, Thank you for sharing your concerns with me regarding the U.S. Central America Free Trade Agreement (CAFTA). It is good to hear from you and I appreciate the opportunity to respond. On May 28, 2004 the U.S. signed the CAFTA with Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras and Nicaragua. The Dominican Republic concluded a similar bilateral free trade agreement with the U.S. on March 15, 2004. These two events merged on August 6, 2004 when all seven countries signed the U.S.- Dominican Republic Central America Free Trade Agreement (DR-CAFTA). If CAFTA takes effect, over 80% of U.S. consumer and industrial exports to the region would become duty-free immediately, with all tariffs removed within 10 years. In addition, over half of current U.S. farm exports to the region would become duty free immediately with tariffs eliminated on all agricultural goods within 20 years. The agreement also advances U.S. interests in services trade, intellectual property rights, investment, government procurement, detailed rules of origin, safeguards, and lengthy tariff elimination schedules would protect many import sensitive goods for all countries. I understand your concerns with the gender disparities in CAFTA, and I agree with you that women and men should participate fully and equally in the formulation of economic and social policies and strategies of any society. Enacting the CAFTA agreement requires that Congress pass implementing legislation, and that similar action be undertaken in the other countries. Please know that I will keep your thoughts on CAFTA in mind should legislation implementing CAFTA come before my desk in the House of Representatives. Again, thank you for contacting me. It is an honor to serve you in Washington. If you would like more information on issues, or would like to share your thoughts with me via e-mail, you may visit my website at http://sullivan.house.gov. Please do not hesitate to contact me again should you have further concerns on federal legislation or programs.

CSResponse from Maine Congressman Allen re CAFTA
Thought you-all might be interested in a thoughtful Congressman's response. Judy Down Maine July 11, 2005 Ms. Judith Knowlton 377 River Road Cushing, Maine 04563 Dear Ms. Knowlton: Thank you for contacting me about the proposed Central American Free Trade Agreement (CAFTA). I appreciate hearing from you. Expanding trade opportunities can lead to job growth and economic vitality in Maine and around the country. Trade policy should reflect all our important societal values, not just commercial concerns, and recognize new realities of the global economy by promoting worker rights, environmental protection and access to health care. Inevitably, trade agreements create winners and losers within the U.S. economy. No trade deal can be considered independently of other policies designed to help those that will be shortchanged. Unfortunately, U.S. economic policies of recent years will make matters worse. The President's budget, adopted by the majority in Congress, cuts programs vital to helping those Americans displaced by new trade agreements: job training, vocational education, adult education, community development, and small business aid. It is irresponsible and immoral to inflict a double blow on the most vulnerable people in our economy. CAFTA was approved by the Senate on June 30 by a vote of 54 to 45. When it is considered by the House, I plan to vote against it. The agreement as negotiated by the Bush Administration fails to provide effective enforcement mechanisms against companies that exploit inadequate labor and environmental standards overseas to relocate U.S. jobs. Trade policy should strive to raise standards everywhere, not encourage a race to the bottom. I am especially concerned about the intellectual property provisions in CAFTA. The pact continues a dangerous trend of using trade policy to extend anti-competitive protections for the highly profitable brand name drug industry. Although generic drugs lower prices and therefore improve public health, the CAFTA provisions inserted by the Bush Administration would delay generic entry for prescription drugs by forcing strict rules on the developing countries covered by the agreement. A year ago, the Guatemalan legislature changed its law to promote the availability of generic drugs in the Guatemalan market. Using CAFTA as a weapon, however, the United States forced the Guatemalan legislature to repeal that legislation. This action sparked protests in Guatemala, with denunciations of American heavy-handedness. It gives our nation a reputation as a bully rather than as evenhanded trade partner. Again, thank you for your message. I hope you will continue to contact me on issues of importance to you.
