I read a timeline that claimed that. Doing a search showed that the claim that TPP is almost complete has been said going back to 2013. I don’t know when it will be complete, but when it is, if we have TPA, we will get to review it for 60 days before the President can sign it. Once he signs it, Congress has another 30 days to study it and vote.

Yeah, but with TPA we took away Congress’s real power over it—a two-thirds senate vote. And, they wouldn’t have pushed TPA through if TPP weren’t ready. I fully expect them now to ram through TiSA and TiPS, or whatever it is called now, sooner rather than later as well.

The Australian trade minister said TPP is basically done and only one week of negotiations are left.

“We are literally one week of negotiation away from completing this extraordinary deal across 12 countries and 40 per cent of the world’s GDP,” said Andrew Robb, Australia’s trade minister.

FReeper conservativejoy is just trying to minimize the impact of Cruz’s TPA support and enabling of Obamatrade. Gather you own facts before analyzing what the Cruz campaign says because their statements are full of half truths and dissembling.
