[CTC_TRADE] Message on TPP

[Andrew Gussert]

Excerpt from the CTC Executive Board Letter to the Administration:

 

"With respect to the initial TPP meeting in March, we believe that it is
critical that the countries interested in participating in TPP talks
understand that there are certain terms that must be and must not be
included in any future U.S trade agreement for it to obtain public and thus
congressional support. Establishing early on that there will be a new Obama
administration approach to TPP negotiations is especially critical,
considering the Bush administration initiated U.S. involvement in the TPP in
February 2008. They participated in three negotiating rounds, presumably
following the past U.S. trade agreement model opposed by many congressional
Democrats, our organizations and according to polling data, a majority of
Americans."
