WASHINGTON -Ways and Means Ranking Member Sander Levin (D-MI) will travel to Colombia next week to review conditions on the ground as they relate to the implementation of the April U.S.-Colombia agreement on worker rights and unaddressed violence issues (the Action Plan). He plans to arrive Monday for a five-day visit.
Said Ranking Member Levin: “I look forward to spending next week on the ground in Colombia meeting with a wide range of individuals and organizations including U.S. embassy staff, Colombian officials, Colombian business, trade associations and unions, and Colombian NGOs. This visit will provide me with the opportunity to view conditions related to worker rights, violence and impunity in relation to my fact-finding trip in January and to the provisions in the Action Plan in conjunction with the U.S.-Colombia Free Trade Agreement."
