| Message | I'm 50-50 on this one these days, while I welcome free trade agreements with nations through treaties I do not know if this will be better than what we already have in place. I'm inclined towards no but that may change. |

| Message | We hope for your support on this bill which opens our nation to increased trade as the tariff penalty is no longer in place. |

| Message | The tariff "penalty" is only inacted in those areas where it would be in the national interest, or be damaging to the economy to allow unrestricted imports, to do so. Our current system does not impose tariffs or quotas on those areas or goods that do not damage Hobrazian interests and so the change in this bill would do more to harm our economy than improve it. |
