Coalition of civil society groups sends letter opposing Fast Track for the TPP to members of Congress and senators
By Coalition of civil society groups
Dear Chairman Baucus, Ranking Member Hatch, Chairman Camp, Ranking Member Levin, and Congressional Advisors on Trade Policy and Negotiations,
In a statement to his Export Council on September 19, President Obama reiterated a call for Congress to limit its own oversight ability on trade agreements by approving fast-track authority for the Trans-Pacific Partnership. We, the undersigned groups, urge you to reject that request and retain your Constitutional authority to seek fixes and amendments to this and other trade agreements.
