"A vote for fast-track is a vote to erase valuable
procedural and substantive powers of Congress concerning a matter of utmost
importance involving the very sovereignty of this nation. Without any doubt,
the creation of this living commission with all its powers will erode the power
of the American people to directly elect-or dismiss from office-the people who
impact their lives."
[NOTE: New information has been discovered about the
President's fast-tracked pacts not known at the time the Senate voted. Included
among them is this declaration from the President's trade representative:
"We will insist on a robust, fully enforceable environment chapter in the
TPP or we will not come to agreement... Our proposals would enhance
international cooperation and create new opportunities for public participation
in environmental governance and enforcement... The United States reiterated our
bedrock position on enforceability of the entire environment chapter..."]

TPP sounds more like a UN Agenda 21 implementation plan
rather than a trade treaty.
