The TPA is avaliable for public consumption. There is NOTHING secret about the bill that Ted Cruz just voted for. Nothing.

Ok, I am confused. What was the bill or portions of the bill which were not public and which Senators had to go to a restricted room to read?

It was the ACTUAL trade deal, the TPP, that people were making a big deal about the secrecy of it.

It was never going to make it through with the secrecy method. So they passed the TPA.

TPA is passed so it can be brought to light without AFL-CIO bagged Congressmen and Senators killing it with 1000 paper cuts of amendments.
