Will Preserve Our Jobs.
Larry Kissell is opposed to bad trade deals like CAFTA that are “a slap in the face” to workers. “As a 27-year textile veteran that’s seen the layoffs and plant closings, I’ve been there and my heart goes out to the families affected,” he says. “NAFTA plus CAFTA equals SHAFTA.” (The Charlotte Observer, 4/12/06; Kissell press release, 7/13/06)
