Rep. Blunt seeks K Street help on CAFTA

Majority Whip Roy Blunt (R-Mo.) has asked lobbyists hoping to pass the Central America Free Trade Agreement (CAFTA) to redouble their efforts to press members of the New Democrat Coalition to support it.

CAFTA, the pact among the United States and six other nations, remains in jeopardy despite its passage in the Senate earlier this month. The sugar lobby has persuaded some Republicans who represent sugar farmers to oppose CAFTA, and others from manufacturing districts have also voiced their opposition
