We want to say, we stand on your side in an ethically responsible way.
Our common goal is to keep the economy strong and the Nation safe.
Destroying human life in the hopes of saving human life is not ethical, and it is not the only option before us.
We acknowledge President Bush's announcement to work with Congress to extend and update the Caribbean Basin Trade Promotion Act.
