(January 2014) The Trans Pacific Partnership (TPP) is a massive deal being negotiated in secret by 600 multinational corporations. Called ‘NAFTA on steroids,’ TPP is designed to keep communities, states or countries from enacting laws to protect the environment, food safety, or the climate. Parts of the TPP draft were released by Wikileaks (Google: TPP Thom Hartmann). TPP trades national sovereignty for Wall Street profits. And President Obama wants ‘fast track authority’ to push TPP through Congress before Americans find out what’s in it.
