Tell Congress: We Can’t Afford
to Outsource More Jobs !!
CWA PETITION: http://bit.ly/1A0PXzq
“I’ve had enough of bad trade deals
like the Trans-Pacific Partnership
[TPP] that trade U.S. jobs to the
lowest bidder and increase the
power of multinational corporations
and Wall Street over our democracy.
I urge you to stand up to this corporate
power grab and vote no on fast track
authority for the Trans-Pacific
Partnership.”
— Larry Cohen, CWA President
FAST TRACK aka
TRADE PROMOTION AUTHORITY
“Now corporate lobbyists want
Congress to help speed things
along by authorizing Trade
Promotion Authority,
a special set of ‘fast track’
rules for the deal so that
it can be pushed through
without allowing time for
close review, debate or
amendments, and guaranteeing
a quick vote in both the House and Senate.”
FAST TRACK FACTS:
|http://tinyurl.com/FastTrackTalkingPoints
|Fast Track is the legislative mechanism used to ram bad legislation,
like the TPP, down our collective throats. Such legislation would not
otherwise pass congressional or public scrutiny.
Fast Track was used to pass NAFTA and the WTO.
