BREAKING: Senate Reaches Agreement To Move Fast-Track Trans-Pacific Partnership Trade Authority

[KoKo]

63. True...to an extent..MSM is saying the House could put a hold on it or reject it

and Lori Wallach a leader on TPP said on "Democracy Now" after the vote yesterday that the HOUSE is where the ACTIVIST ACTION Now MOVES!

So...we shouldn't give up...Yet.

But, like many others replying on this thread...I've been on DU long enough that I remember us all glued to C-Span watching the Senate/House Vote on issues as they tallied and "Hoping against Hope" that there was a possibility we Dems could WIN on an issue.

The disappointments in those votes were endless and I stopped watching C-Span after the 2004 Election.

But, still, Warren, Brown and Sanders have made a good stand. And, we have desperate Environment Groups and Labor trying to make a stand because the time is ripe with so much unhappiness and apathy in the Country.....plus revolution in the streets.

Maybe THIS TIME the PTB will be afraid enough to LISTEN?

I don't know....I'm going to be hopeful for one last time that those who vote for FTA/TPP will be worried about losing their jobs in 2016 and vote to stay in power rather than ram this dreadful thing through.


We shall see.....
