Presidential Proclamation of World Trade Week 2009
I meant to link to this last week. Last week (May 17 – May 23, 2009) was World Trade Week. A notable part of the proclamation:
Imports can also benefit the United States by increasing consumer choice while lowering prices for millions of working families. In addition, imports can support employment for retailers, distributors, the transportation sector, and domestic manufacturers which rely on global supply chains to make products for both the U.S. and international markets.
