less than 14% of the text of the TPP has been released to the public. Twenty-five of its 29 chapters are still secret.

I wonder if that is correct. Hasn't the American public been told that the entire agreement was released for public review a few months back?

Parsing Demo-speak, that translated out to,
the entire public part was released for public review.
The rest, not so much.
