Dominican Republic approves CAFTA

Becoming the fifth Central American country to approve CAFTA, the Dominican Republic left only Costa Rica and Nicaragua as holdouts to the free trade agreement. U.S. Trade Representative Rob Portman congratulated the country on its passage of the agreement by a wide margin in the DR's Chamber of Deputies, in a vote of 118-4. (U.S. Government)
