President Obama recently announced his intention to push ahead with the Korea Free Trade Agreement immediately after the November elections. This Bush-negotiated pact is the biggest free trade agreement since NAFTA. If passed, it will accelerate the offshoring of Northwest jobs, expose the region’s environmental laws to new forms of attack and prohibit the type of banking regulations needed to head off the next financial crisis.
