The issue with TPA isn't whether or not it's secret, the issue with TPA is that now TPP, which is secret at this moment, can be passed with a simple majority but only repealed with a vote of sixty votes in favor of repeal.

The Constitution says treaties require a 2/3 majority vote of the Senate to become law, TPP is a treaty no matter what the spin masters call it, and now TPP can become law of the land if a simple majority in the Senate approves.

I know King Barry doesn't care what's in the Constitution but I'm amazed to see so many FReepers who obviously don't care either.

Sure are a lot of “experts” here about a bill that is supposedly secret.
