I think you may need more tin foil.

To anyone reading this thread, TPA is not a trade agreement. But it does insure that the public is allowed a 60 day viewing period before any subsequent trade bill, be it TPP or any other, is put to a vote by Congress.

TPA puts an trade deal in the hands of Congress, not the POTUS.

As for whether or not trade agreements are read or not is not verifiable.

I know Cruz read it because he said as much.

Given that under TPA, all trade agreements are to have a 60-day public viewing period, and TPP is not up for a vote today, why is the question of whether or a member of Congress has read it now?

Because now is the time amendments can be added. They can’t on the second vote

Face it, Cruz is another phoney globalist in action if not word.
