John McCain Is Wrong for Michigan

From Michigan Dems:

Yesterday, John McCain again spent his day promoting the unfair trade policies that have devastated Michigan's economy. At a speech in California, McCain called himself "an unapologetic supporter of NAFTA." The Associated Press article about the speech explains that he also touted his recent visits to Mexico and Colombia where he spent the first days of July pushing for more NAFTA-like trade agreements.

In response to those visits, Democrats in Michigan, led by Lt. Governor John Cherry, Congressman Dale Kildee, and State Representatives Michael Sak and Mary Valentine, held protests to ask McCain why the Mexican and Colombian economies are more important to him than bringing jobs to Michigan.

John McCain will make yet another appearance in Michigan this week to discuss his so-called economic "plan". From his visits, it has become clear that he is out of touch with the current status of Michigan's economy. Click here to read more McCain's record of supporting Bush's failed policies.
