A second petition filed by WOLA and USLEAP, updating and incorporating their 2004 petition to which the U.S. Trade Representative (USTR) had not yet responded, urging the USTR to review the government of Guatemala's failure to enforce its labor laws. This second petition again presents an argument that Guatemala should not remain a beneficiary of preferential trade treatment due to the labor abuses cited therein.
