Not attacking Sessions....but we can ask questions.

I know some of you are sensitive when people ASK questions. I am not attacking his character, so it wasn’t an attack. Surely, you understand the difference.

My point of the vanity was that so many on here, I am sure you included, we lauding St. Sessions for doing the “right thing here...even though he hasn’t made the bill public either...and yet, he has a past regarding BAD trade deals.

Adress substance not personalities. Why do you favor TPA? Do you believe that TPA cedes Congressional power to the executive branch?

Do you agree or disagree with the following:

The authority granted in “Trade Promotion Authority” is authority transferred from Congress to the Executive and, ultimately, to international bureaucrats. The entire purpose of fast-track is for Congress to surrender its power to the Executive for six years. Legislative concessions include: control over the content of legislation, the power to fully consider that legislation on the floor, the power to keep debate open until Senate cloture is invoked, and the constitutional requirement that treaties receive a two-thirds vote. Legislation cannot even be amended.
