We are in crunch time to stop Congress from granting
Fast Track to the President. Fast Track would mean that he could sign the <A

Partnership (TPP)</A> agreement before Congress sees it and would prevent
transparency and a democratic review of the TPP in Congress.</P>

The Constitution gives Congress the responsibility to
negotiate trade. If Congress gives this responsibility up, then we will not know
what is in the text of the TPP and will not have hearings or debate on it.</P>

It is likely that Congress will vote on Fast Track in
both the House and Senate in late September. We must move quickly to tell
Congress to say “No!” to Fast Track and to demand transparency and a democratic
process for the largest and most wide-reaching trade agreement in history.</P>
