The 112-year-old company makes the fabric for Levi's jeans, among others. It employs more than 3,000 people in five factories in North Carolina and South Carolina along with a joint venture in Mexico.

"Unfortunately, the size and scope of this challenge shows no sign of diminishing, since appeals to Washington from textile industry leaders seem to have fallen on deaf ears, with U.S. trade policies continuing to unfairly favor these overseas competitors," Bakane said.

Thanks for the ping. Surely those 'deaf ears' in Washington wouldn't include Senator Elizabeth Dole now would they? Her campaign ads showed her in a factory so we allll know Elizabeth cares < /sarcasm>

Good to see the joint venture in Mexico as well. At least part of President Bush's new voter base will be employed. Lord knows how many more conservatives he's going to lose between now and 2004

Ping for NC. With this and the latest tobacco fiasco that even the tobacco industry doesn't approve of, can someone please tell me why I should vote for another 'chosen' candidate from this administration? The last 'chosen' one could care less....
