“The authority, which affords the president and Congress the ability to “fast-track” trade deals, expired in 2007 and is opposed by many of Obama’s key allies, including labor unions and environmentalists.”
I’m sure there is much more to it than the excerpt. However.

Labor unions and environmentalists don’t like the proposed deal.
So far so good.
With regard to the H1-B thing, awhile ago Cruz was trying to push something through about allowing H1-b workers, AFTER it had been shown that no American workers had those abilities that the companies were looking for. Of course that can be bypassed by adding into the job description “needs to know COBAL and fluent in the Indian language.”

The panel on fox just basically said the bill is going to go through- Seems like unions and enviro’s objections aren’t going to be enough to sway him
