Don't raise generic drug prices. Make transparent the text of the proposed Trans-Pacific trade agreement

Created by W.C. on January 31, 2015

This petition would require that the proposed Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) trade agreement be made public (in line with the President's promise of transparency) so there can be public discussion and input and so our congress persons can have the information to do their jobs. The agreement is rumored to contain agreements that could raise the price of some generic drugs in the U.S. by many thousands of dollars, and that's one tiny instance from many pages of text.

It has been drafted in relative secrecy, can only be seen by congress persons who visit a room to read it and purportedly grants multinational companies (MNCs) extensive control over public services such as healthcare and the internet.

Make your voice heard by requiring transparency before permanent decisions are made
