Say NO on Fast Track for a Secret Trade deal! President Obama’s intentions may be good, but SECRECY is the problem. NO! on any Fast Track vote until it’s all made public. Democratic Senators already have 7 PAGES of important guarantees & necessary amendments to protect our planet’s environment, labor, and America’s middle class.
Senator Elizabeth Warren explains to Rachel why she’s reluctant to ‘Grease the Skids’ & give ‘fast track’ power to President Obama on a new TPP trade deal, citing concerns that the crafting of the deal was ‘RIGGED” by predatory corporations for the 1% corporate elite and against our middle class. She insists the TPP agreement be made public BEFORE a Fast Track vote.
