Obama mentioned environmental standards durting the NAFTA question which I took to mean with all trade partners, and then he went on to mention lead paint in toys. But I agree, there were no real specifics.
We need to get serious. The artificial yuan, minimal environmental protection and disregard for human rights are all issues that need to be tied to access to our markets. As an Obama support I've been disappointed in his lack of attention to this. It's an easy win, so I wonder why it's taking so long.
