Dear Friends and Activists,
We met Congressman Alan Grayson, who has done more than any other
member of Congress to expose the evil of the Trans Pacific
Partnership at a private event last night, and like Paul Revere he
sounded the alarm that they were going to try to sneak in a vote on
Fast Track for this treasonous trade deal as early as this very week.

Petition Text:
It is no exaggeration that the entire future of our economy is about
to be sold out to a secret cabal of multi-national corporate
lobbyists in the form of the so-called Trans Pacific Partnership. It
is so horrific that they have made it an actual crime for anyone to
tell us what's actually in it.
People are being threatened with prison for leaking details that this
hideous "deal" would empower foreign corporations to, for example,
force environmental devastation and child labor on our own country
because otherwise it would reduce their profits.
And in the sickest proposal ever put before Congress, they are being
asked to abdicate any and all oversight, no amendments, no hearings,
no actual say so, in the form of a Fast Track proposal to make this
possible, to surrender our entire government to corporate special
interests.
Any member of Congress who lies down for this deserves to be tarred,
feathered, and chased out of Washington, never to be allowed to
return. Those pushing this are committing literal treason, and will
never be forgiven for it.
