08/29/2007: "Unions seek to block NAFTA trucks"

The Teamsters Union said Wednesday it will ask a federal appeals court to block the Bush administration's plan to allow Mexican trucks to carry cargo anywhere in the United States.

The union said it has been told by officials in the Transportation Department's Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration that the first Mexican trucks will be coming across the border Saturday.

[ Suddenly, it has become fashionable to note that Americans will be displaced by this new SPP, or north American union renamed. ]
