PETITION ABOUT TPP

from Sharon Lux

Sign this White House PETITION asking the President why he won't release the full text of the TPP now?

The Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) is being written and negotiated in secret by 600 corporate lobbyists without release of its provisions to the American People or their representatives in Congress. Now, the White House is pushing for Fast-Track Authority or FTA.  FTA would effectively silence debate and eliminate any possibility of amendment.  The TPP is anti-democratic and nothing but a power grab by the multinationals for control of our future.

If you like, take a short look at the TPP in general, TheDirtiest Deal You Never Heard Of..

And/or watch a 40 minute video by Dr Erik Monasterio, a physician who explains in plain language about how our public health has already been harmed by big PHARM and the even more harm that would come from the TPP agreement.

Ask the President why he won't release the full text of the TPP now?

(Note: the White House will send you a confirming email before posting your signature.)

Ask him if it is because the American people would strongly object to this blatant takeover of American sovereignty by international corporate interests?

Ask him if it is because the TPP would severely impede our local, state, and national legislatures from establishing American standards for our country for environmental, public health, labor, and technology protections according to the values of the American People?

We MUST stop this trade deal.  It would have horrible effects in the United States and the other countries which sign it.  And, as usual, the most vulnerable citizens would suffer the most.

Then please pass this onto your friends and associates.


Thank you!
