Be informed! For three years, a group of some 600 multinational corporations and trade associations have been quietly negotiating a trade pact IN SECRET that could void American laws that protect workers, jobs, health, and the environment.
Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts, is one of just four U.S. Senators who voted against Michael Froman's confirmation this summer as Trade Representative. She said of TPP, “I have heard the argument that transparency would undermine the Trade Representative’s policy to complete the trade agreement because public opposition would be significant.” “In other words, if people knew what was going on, they would stop it. This argument is exactly backwards." This trade agreement should not be part of U.S. policy.
