Write Your Representative to Vote ‘No’ on Fast Track Trade Authority

Your Representative Needs to Commit Today to Vote ‘No’ to Stop Fast Track for the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP)

This Saturday marks the two year anniversary of the U.S.-Korea Free Trade Agreement (FTA) taking effect. This deal, which the Obama administration promised would expand exports and create American jobs, has proven to do just the opposite.

President Obama wants your representative to give him Fast Track trade authority so that he can railroad the TPP through Congress with limited debate and no amendments. But under the Korea FTA — Obama’s only major trade deal, and the deal on which the TPP is modeled — U.S. exports dropped dramatically, imports soared and the U.S. lost more jobs to a trade agreement. And the TPP is literally based on the Korea FTA text.

We need our representatives to stand up for us by voting “no” on Fast Track to stop the TPP from offshoring more jobs, jacking up medicine prices, and allowing corporations to sue us in international tribunals for enforcing standards for wages, job safety, and protection of our land, water and air that we’ve fought for in America for a century.

Congress must assert its constitutional authority over trade agreements to stop the TPP nightmare from becoming a reality.
