President George W. Bush speaks on free trade policy during a visit Friday, Oct. 12, 2007, to Miami. The President told his audience: "Congress now has an opportunity to build on the success by passing new free trade agreements with Peru, Colombia, and Panama. Today, all three of these countries enjoy duty-free access to U.S. markets for virtually all their products. They're shipping their goods our way, and most of those products enter America duty free. Yet when we ship our products their way, most of our products face significant tariffs. Our free trade agreements would knock down many of these barriers -- and level the playing field for our businesses and farmers and workers." White House photo by Eric Draper
