- /* ---------- "Anti-NAFTA Ad in New York Times" ---------- */
- Today's New York Times (national edition 12-17-92, p. A7) contains an
- advertisement protesting President Bush's planned signing of the North
- American Free Trade Agreement today. Under the headline, "Without Regard
- to the Human Impact of Their Decisions" organizations such as Greenpeace,
- National Farmers Union, Amalgamated Clothing and Textile Workers Union,
- AFL-CIO and many other groups contend the current draft of NAFTA would:
- Undermine labor, environmental and social standards; Lead to environmental
- ruin; Cause massive U.S. and Canadian job losses; Destroy family farms;
- and Threaten democratic process.
