James Bacchus on protectionist dangers

Published March 11, 2009 at 12:48 PM
President Obama managed to soften the "buy American" provisions in the economic stimulus bill. Former Democratic Congressman James Bacchus, who recently wrote a column for The Deal magazine, wishes he'd been able to eliminate them altogether. In this edition of Inside The Deal, Bacchus, who chairs the global trade and investment practice group at Greenberg Traurig LLP, tells Suzanne Stevens that protectionism poses a serious threat to free trade, and it's up to the president to keep it at bay.
