Mark Critz: “Solving our budgetary challenges in a way that stimulates job creation and economic growth should be our number one…”

I urge continued efforts to reduce barriers to markets in Asia and Latin America, in particular Brazil.

While we do right by protecting our workers and safeguarding the environment, there is a real expense to doing so.

It is far from clear where these 120,000 could possibly find gainful and legal employment in Afghanistan's economy.

Right now, job creation is priority one for this Committee and that means looking to new markets, whether they are domestic or abroad.
