Statement

Date: June 12, 2015
Location: Washington, DC
Issues: Trade

Congressman Ben Ray Luján of New Mexico's Third District released the following statement today after voting against legislation to provide fast track authority for the Trans Pacific Partnership.

"I have long voiced my opposition to fast track authority that would limit Congress' ability to ensure that any trade agreement addresses critical concerns that impact hard-working families in New Mexico. Congress must have a meaningful role in a process that will have a significant impact on workers, jobs, and the economy, and I oppose this path forward that excludes Congress from playing such a role."
