    Clock Has Run Out on Fast Track - source: Change to Win, PRNewswire
    'The end of Fast Track is a first and necessary step toward putting U.S. trade policy on the right track to fair trade deals that create jobs, raise living standards for all workers and restore the American Dream.

    'So-called free trade agreements negotiated under Fast Track have resulted in the loss of millions of good American jobs, the spread of sweatshops and child labor throughout the world, environmental degradation, and broken promises to uphold even the minimal labor and human rights standards."
