In 2008 Obama made a promise to the American people: If he were elected President, one of the first things he would do would be to renegotiate and fix free trade agreements like NAFTA which have sent millions of our jobs overseas. Not only has he done nothing to fix NAFTA, today he is trying to get Congress to pass the Trans Pacific Partnership Agreement or the TPP for short.
If Congress passes the TPP it will do more damage to our country than all previous free trade agreements combined. Millions more of our jobs will be sent overseas. It will allow corporations and special trade courts to rule over our democracy. Obama needs to stand before the American people and explain why he has chosen this course. The best way to accomplish this is by holding a prime time debate on the TPP before Congress votes on the measure. Obama not only owes the American people this debate, he has repeatedly offered to have a debate on the TPP. Hold President Obama to his word by signing our petition on the White House website.
