A "Progressive, Pro-Trade Agenda"

That's how Ron Kirk described the trade policy he would pursue at the news conference where his appointment was just announced.

ADDED:  From the press conference that followed (my rough transcription):

Q:  How do we keep jobs from going overseas?

Obama:  Rebuild our infrastructure; get financial system working with strong regulation; education; ensure there is reciprocity in trade agreements (that is, make sure we can sell American goods abroad if our trading partners can sell here); make sure we have enforceable labor and environmental laws here and abroad.
