Despite having received over 42,000 petition signatures urging transparency in the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) Free Trade Agreement negotiations, U.S. Trade Representative Ron Kirk continues to refuse to tell the American people what he’s been proposing in our names.
His office has granted approximately 600 corporate lobbyists special “cleared advisor” status that allows them to comment on TPP negotiating texts — but the American public and even many Members of Congress have been barred from seeing them.
With the U.S. Trade Representative refusing to listen to reason, it’s time for our elected officials to step in. Please contact your Member of Congress online now, urging them to demand greater transparency and Congressional oversight in the TPP negotiations.
