TAA FAILS! [View all] marym625 Jun 2015 OP

Good Harmony Blue Jun 2015 #1

Doesn't the TAA train and place workers? JaneyVee Jun 2015 #2

Yes PowerToThePeople Jun 2015 #5

So the offshoring continues, but no training for displaced workers? JaneyVee Jun 2015 #14

That is my take. PowerToThePeople Jun 2015 #23

Wasn't TAA to be paid for by cuts in social safety net? Isn't that why they tanked it? peacebird Jun 2015 #28

I believe Robbins Jun 2015 #32

TAA already exists, or at least did PowerToThePeople Jun 2015 #34

R's wanted to pay for retraining by taking $$$ from medicaid, didn't they? peacebird Jun 2015 #45

I heard something along those lines PowerToThePeople Jun 2015 #46

correct marym625 Jun 2015 #60

It's tied to the individual agreements, so there was TAA for NAFTA, CAFTA, US/Korea, etc. Recursion Jun 2015 #83

In what way are the TAA and the TPA opposites? Cal Carpenter Jun 2015 #42

Tpa is trade deal fast track PowerToThePeople Jun 2015 #44

Okay Cal Carpenter Jun 2015 #47

Well PowerToThePeople Jun 2015 #49

They were procedurally tied together so they have to start TPA over, basically (nt) Recursion Jun 2015 #79

TPA passes, they will revote on TAA. tritsofme Jun 2015 #26

Yup Harmony Blue Jun 2015 #29

Are they still going to vote on the TPA today? And they need to take the Medicare baloney out of jwirr Jun 2015 #38

Can't do that without sending it back to the Senate. (nt) jeff47 Jun 2015 #56

The house scheduled a revote for Tuesday marym625 Jun 2015 #63

Yep, if they can pass the Medicare-cutting TAA on Tuesday they don't have to go back to the Senate. jeff47 Jun 2015 #66
