Colorado Progressive Business Alliance - September 2007
I have been in the front of the line to critcize Senator Salazar and the Democrats for their failures.
Let me be the first to congratulate them and Senator Salazar in particular for passing the Dorgan Amendment to the transportation funding bill. Following the lead in the House, the Senate overwhelmingly (veto and filibuster proof) voted to end the Bush administration's pilot program allowing Mexican trucking companys to take the jobs of workers in this country and further depress wages in the trucking industry. Senator Salazar voted for the amendment.
Predicably, the Bush administration immediately announced that the president would veto the entire transportation bill if it contained any provisions limiting the cross border trucking program.
