LIVE THREAD: House debate and vote on Obamatrade: C-span 1
C-span 1
Posted on 06/12/2015 6:38:32 AM PDT by ken5050
The House this morning takes up the bill to authorize Obama to negotiate a Trans-Pacific trade deal. Despite the GOP leadership's support, conservatives may well defeat it: they fell by one vote short last night, on a procedural vote on the rule, that would have killed it. Call your congresscritters to vote NO, and post comments and links here if you wish

I’m surprised they are going ahead with the next votes. I thought they would go back and lick their wounds and regroup.

WRONG!!!!!
Cruz does NOT support the TPP, which is the secret, hidden trade bill that Obama wants to pass, that is not what is being voted on today.
What Cruz IS supporting is the TPA, that is open for all to see (
TPA bill text)
They are not the same things and supporting TPA does not mean Ted is giving support for TPP. Please watch his interview I posted in above comment earlier...he explains this thoroughly.

Can't wait to see the vote by name. Of course, many changes of votes when the weasels saw which way the wind was blowing. I hope somewhere there will be a list of last-minute vote-changers.

That was just TAA. Voting now on “Fast Track”. Looking like it will pass.

The House has moved to immediately to vote on TPAA (I think) in a five minute rush vote. Anyone decode this?

Wow... this is close. The TPA part has a chance to pass... after TAA went down in flames...

This bill hit the dirt hard didn’t it. Is there any chance of a similar bill? Don’t think so.
To: CatoRenasci
Up to their usual tricks.
