Some lawmakers have raise major objections to the agreement, citing human rights and other concerns. But the president stressed rejecting the measure will send a bad signal to America's neighbors to the south.
We reject the opportunity to support friends with good economic policy, if we turn down the free trade agreement, it will hurt our relations in South America. It will give the voices of false Populism something to say. It is in our strategic interests that will support the democracy in our neighborhood.
The agreement with Columbia is the first 3 free trade agreements the White House wants to see clear Congress this year. The others are with Panama and South Korea.
However, the head of Senate Finance Committee which handles all legislations dealing with trade has indicated even no rush to bring this measures up for consideration. Senator Max Baucus, a Democrat, said the Senate must first take action that help American workers who have lost their jobs as a result of foreign competition.
