| I'm still in D.C., but it looks like radio ads are going up pushing for the Senior Senator to reject fast track authority. I'll get more on this if I can track it down (using a borrowed laptop to post this). In the meantime, anyone heard one of the ads?
Update - (by V) The link that Matt provided had no response from the Baucus folks. The AP did have some response, to their credit:
[Baucus'] spokesman said Thursday that 13,000 Montana jobs depend on trade and the senator is looking for a new direction on trade policy.
"He wants to beef up labor and environmental standards, but don't forget that trade is an engine that drives Montana's main street economy and creates jobs," said Barrett Kaiser. (emphasis mine)
I am glad that Baucus is responding to the call from They Work for Us, but I am nervous that the "new direction" that he is looking at might just be political puffing. Luckily Barrett is a frequent reader and writer here, and maybe he could shed some light in comments or as a new diary, on what "new direction(s)" Baucus might be looking at for trade. |
