I haven't time to go into all the research I can but I did read this also ...

Concerned about secrecy? TPA requires any agreement to be made public at least 60 days before a vote. Concerned about transparency? TPA allows every Members of Congress to read negotiating text and receive briefings at any time. Concerned about Congress ceding authority? “TPA grants no new authority to the President,” confirms the nonpartisan Congressional Research Service. http://www.foxnews.com/opinion/2015/06/10/fast-track-trade-bill-why-america-must-lead-on-trade.html

I will research more. Hopefully, this has just grown out of control report wise and the above is the actual case.

Ha...there are statutes on the books requiring between 60 days and 2 years before making any changes to social security and immigration policies........and why Judge Hansen put a stop to Obama's immigration dictates.
