House Begins Debate on DR-CAFTA
Tonight the House of Representatives began two hours of debate on H.R. 3045 the implementing legislation for the Dominican Republic-Central America-United States Free Trade Agreement (DR-CAFTA). The vote is expected to be very close, but the House leadership predicts that they will have enough votes to pass the measure. The Senate approved the DR-CAFTA implementing legislation last month by a vote of 54-45.
