[MCN] URGENT! New Fast-Track vote is Today. Help Stop the TPP!

[Matthew Koehler]

Last Friday Rep Zinke 'flip-flopped' and voted to give President Obama
undemocratic Fast-Track powers over the TPP (Trans-Pacific Partnership),
the largest 'free trade' pact in world history that covers 40% of global
GDP. Previously, Re Zinke told Montanans he was absolutely against Fast
Track.

Every vote will count today, so please use the link below to let Rep Zinke
now he must vote No Fast Track for the secret, job-killing TPP.

Thanks.

Friend,

John Boehner is a sore loser.

Last Friday, he and other corporate shills in the U.S. House of
Representatives lost their latest bid to “Fast Track” the Trans-Pacific
Partnership (TPP) — a grab bag of giveaways to Big Business that is being
*secretly* negotiated between the United States and 11 Asian-Pacific
countries under the guise of “free trade.”



*But Boehner and his buddies have already concocted a procedural maneuver
to hold yet another vote — TODAY — that would Fast Track the TPP!Well, if
they are going to keep trying to force Fast Track and the TPP on us, we
HAVE TO keep doing our part to block it.*

Take action RIGHT NOW: Tell your representative to vote “No” whenever the
House votes on John Boehner’s next ploy to Fast Track the TPP.

The TPP is barely about trade at all.

It is an insidious scheme by multinational corporations for unprecedented
power to evade the laws and regulations that protect us from their reckless
pursuit of profits.

Fast Tracking the TPP would make it easier to offshore our jobs and push
down our wages by throwing Americans into competition with workers in
Vietnam making less than 60 cents an hour.

And it would flood us with unsafe imported food, increase fracking, roll
back Wall Street regulation, and on and on and on.

*Don’t make the mistake of thinking the TPP is too complex or abstract to
worry about.*

You need to be worried about the TPP.

The TPP will affect every aspect of your day-to-day life.

It would do all of the damage NAFTA did to jobs, wages, food safety, the
environment and more. But the damage would be even worse than NAFTA.

*And Fast Tracking the TPP is the top priority of Big Business in this
Congress.*

Whether you’ve taken action against Fast Track before or are a newbie,
email your representative IMMEDIATELY to block Fast Track and the TPP.

Thank you.
