Dear Commissioner,

It is my belief that MADE IN U.S.A means just that, MADE IN U.S.A. Dear sir/maam I am a dues paying, card carrying member of the American Postal Workers Union, and for as long as I can remember I have always tried to purchase products that are made in the U.S.A. But due to programs such as N.A.F.T.A it is becoming increasingly harder to find products that are made in the U.S.A. As a proud unionist and postal worker I urge you to stop trying to make it harder than it already is to find quality crafted made in U.S.A products. I applaude Sen. Franks (R-N.J.), Reps. Kaptur (D-OHIO), LoBiondo (R-N.J.) and John Dingell (D-MICH.) for their efforts in trying to derail this made in U.S.A policy.

Thomas E. Edwards
