Democrats want to change free trade deals

Democratic Congressional leaders announced that they are “restoring bipartisanship to American trade policy” after negotiations with the Bush administration on free trade pacts between the U.S. and several Latin American countries. Since regaining majority rule of both chambers of Congress last November, Democrats have been calling for stronger labor and intellectual property provisions to free trade deals with nations like Colombia, Peru, and Panama.
