Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) is moving forward with votes on President Obamas trade agenda next week, even though pro-trade Democrats have yet to promise their support.
McConnell on Thursday filed motions to advance fast-track authority and a separate package of trade preferences for African nations combined with an extension of Trade Adjustment Assistance (TAA), a program that helps workers displaced by foreign competition.
