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!
