Attention members of Congress: the TPP is being written and no one is at the table to represent the interests of the American public. The multinationals are there, the same folks who brought us NAFTA. They are there with their lawyers, but you are not. You have no way of knowing what kinds of goodies they are cooking up because everything is being done in secret, behind closed doors. There is a reason for this secrecy. If its provisions were made public in advance, no one who pays attention would ever allow America to be saddled with another NAFTA-type agreement, and this one is likely to be even worse. Do we want multinational corporations to be above national laws and immune from any regulation that might diminish their gross profit? The degradation already caused by the extraction industries (such as Occidental petroleum in Ecuador, oil and gas companies all over the world, even the proposed Keystone XL pipeline) and the economic damage to small farmers and businesses will pale compared to what has already resulted from NAFTA. Congress will have no opportunity even to review the agreement in its final form until it is presented to the President for signature. And the only way you can prevent America from being obligated under the agreement is to deny the President the Fast Track authority he wants. So, step up! Vote Fast Track down and give TPP a thorough congressional analysis, debate, and vote.
