The Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) is a trade agreement between several countries on the Pacific rim (I think 14). Bernie says it would do nothing but hurt working class and middle class Americans by shipping more of their jobs overseas while enriching the billionaires. If Bernie had his way, he would also do away with the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) and pretty much any other "free" trade agreement that we are currently involved with that hurts the American worker.
