Sen. Jeff Sessions (R-AL) 80% has issued yet another clarion call to House Republicans urging them to abandon GOP leadership’s desperate ploys to bring Obamatrade back to life and instead vote against Trade Promotion Authority (TPA) and stop President Obama from getting even more power in his final years in office.
“The House is preparing to vote again tomorrow on providing fast-track executive authority to the President. If adopted, it will be sent immediately to the Senate for final consideration,” Sessions said, before correcting misconceptions peddled far and wide by House Ways and Means Committee chairman Rep. Paul Ryan (R-WI) 58% .
“It is essential that there be no misunderstanding: fast-track preapproves the formation of not only the unprecedentedly large Trans-Pacific Partnership, but an unlimited number of such agreements over the next six years,” Sessions said. “Those pacts include three of the most ambitious ever contemplated. After TPP comes the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP) between the United States and the European Union, followed by the Trade in Services Agreement (TiSA), seeking as one its goals labor mobility among more than 50 nations. Together, these three international compacts encompass three-fourths of the world’s GDP. Including the nations whose membership is being courted for after enactment, the countries involved would encompass nearly 90 percent of global GDP. Yet, through fast-track, Congress will have authorized the President to ink these deals before a page of them has been made public. Then, the Executive sends Congress ‘implementing’ legislation to change U.S. law—legislation which cannot be amended, cannot be filibustered, and will not be subjected to the Constitutional requirement for a two-thirds treaty vote.”

The list, Ping
Let me know if you would like to be on or off the ping list
Pray! And Call!
With the passage of TPA - get ready America If you live in the Midwest, Plains and the Mountain States (Wyoming, Montana) your new government official is in Ottawa and be prepared to speak Cannuck (canada) Oh, canada will become the national anthem. Be thankful you are not living in Florida (Cuba), Alaska (russia), Hawaii (china) east Coast (European Union), West Coast (japan) or the South (Mexico)
Maybe if they took the time to explain it to the American people....
The accursed RINOs like Cruz and Boehner and McConnell
and Ryan are butt-licking everyone in the White Mosque.
But for what?
NEVER will America trust anyone in the GOP, again.
This ploy will bring in the NWO.
The federal Government is the new evil Empire.
I read that the Boehner was going to divide the Authority bill into two parts, in order to get the whole passed.
However, Nancy Pelosi isn’t budging and has not been called yet by the president to offer to negotiate with her caucus on the labor portion they are unhappy with.
Without Nancy can they make it to 218?
For God’s Sake and any future of the USA, LISTEN TO SESSIONS!
This is incredibly, life-changingly important, yet most people never heard of it and can’t see what the fuss is about if they have.
May God bless us and keep us, I’ve called my Rep.
For mercy’s sake, please call!
Is it possible the elite elements of the GOP realize that they're losing their grip, so now is the time to pass everything they want? They'll leave the country so seriously messed up that they won't be safe leaving their private islands and gated communities, but their plans will be in place.
I could imagine a scenario where fed up 'pubs nominate Trump.
That is the intent.
Anyone who voted for TPA has put their stamp of approval on the TPP.
Don’t trust anyone who voted for TPA who then tells you they were not in favor of TPP.
TPA makes the passage of TPP a sure thing.
Barack Obama: “The only people that don’t want to disclose the truth, are people with something to hide.”
One of the few times Obama told the truth!!!!!!!!!!!
Allies?
My senate critters, McCain and Flake have been notified of my disappointment in them. They were informed that if the House should pass the TPA I expect them to vote against it. I also reminded them that they were elected for one purpose, to STOP the dim’s dead in their tracks. If enough of us hammer them I think they will buckle. My congressman is a first rate fellow who did America proud. He will do no less if they bring it to a vote again.
