Tell Kansas lawmakers, "Vote NO" on Fast Track for Obama
Please ask your Congressional representatives and Senators Roberts and Moran to vote no on fast track legislation for the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP). An agreement like the TPP should be negotiated in the full light of day. America must reserve the right to determine our own consumer, health, safety, labor, privacy and environmental regulations. Do not surrender our rights to Trans National Corporations.
Why is this important?
When global corporations get everything they want, the rest of us lose. That's the rest of the globe, not just the 99% in America. The Obama Administration is currently negotiating, in secret, a massive so-called "free" trade agreement called the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP). TPP leaks indicate that this agreement will greatly empower corporations by virtually eliminating consumer, health, safety, labor, privacy and environmental regulations. In essence, this will be a global corporate coup. In order to speed approval through congress, President Obama will be asking Congress to approve "Fast Track" legislation, giving him ability to sign before Congress sees the agreement. Tell your Kansas Congressional lawmakers, Senators and Representatives alike, to vote "NO" on "Fast Track" legislation.
