from your State, by phone or fax on MONDAY. For information call the US Capitol Switchboard Offices in Washington, DC (202) 224- 3121 for Senate DC office info.

Remember NAFTA! 1994. They said the US would be so rich that Cadillacs would be rolling off the US assembly lines, for all the new wealthy people this global trade agreement would make. It was a LIE, like 1992 Presidential candidate and businessman Ross Perot warned us. Listen to Sen. Bernie Sanders, he's telling us the deal, the truth. *20 years of NAFTA trade agreement and look what a mess the US is in!

We are still seeing the damages of NAFTA (North American Trade Agreement), CAFTA (Central American Trade Agreement), WTO (World Trade Organization)-

The TPP is the global coup d'état, the Mother of all 'trade agreements' - take action to stop it Monday. DO IT-
