Jordan statement on Trade Promotion Authority vote

Congressman Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) released the following statement after today's vote on Trade Promotion Authority:

"Conservatives in Congress support free trade. We have been and still are willing to work with our leadership to make this legislation better. Our leadership tried to compromise with Democrats instead of us, and now we know that strategy failed. We stand ready to work on free trade legislation that is both transparent and consistent with Republican principles."
