Survey of Gubernatorial campaign websites, 2001-2009: on Free Trade


Chris Daggett: Worry about losing jobs to China & India but also to NY & NC

We not only have to worry about losing jobs to China and India, but to New York and North Carolina. We must make the investments needed to create high-paying jobs, cut the high cost of living in New Jersey and doing business here, and reform a regulatory climate that makes relocation firms rank New Jersey near the bottom as a place to start or expand a business.

Kathleen Sebelius: Create new markets for Kansas products at home and overseas

Kansas’ traditional agricultural economy, and encourage expansion in other bedrock industries like aviation and energy. She continues to reinforce Kansas’ economic anchors, fighting to create new markets for beef, grain, and technology both at home and overseas. Sebelius has also been a national leader in promoting the development and production of value-added Kansas agricultural products like ethanol.
