BATTLE CREEK, Nov 12 - Today Congressman Mark Schauer (D-MI) issued the following statement on trade negotiations between the U.S. and South Korea:

“I commend President Obama’s decision to pull out of the South Korea Free Trade Agreement and his commitment to defending domestic auto companies, workers, and suppliers. We need fair trade policies that strengthen manufacturing, protect jobs, and facilitate long-term economic growth here at home. We’ve already lost too many good-paying jobs to unfair trade with countries like South Korea that refuse to open their markets to American companies, particularly our auto companies, and it’s time to get tough on these practices and bring our jobs back.”
