Stop TPP today

The Trans-Pacific Partnership is a disastrous trade agreement designed to protect the interests of multinational corporations at the expense of workers, consumers, and the environment. It will negatively impact some of the poorest people in the world to further enrich some of the wealthiest. Trade agreements like NAFTA, CAFTA, and the Trans-Pacific Partnership force American workers to compete against workers in nations that have near non-existent minimum wages, where independent labor unions are banned, and where people are thrown in jail for expressing their political beliefs. Contact your Representative and tell her or him to vote against legislation that would enable the implementation of the Trans-Pacific Partnership. Contact your representative
