The key question needing investigation is what the letters tell us about votes on TPP itself.
Abstract
Republican and Democratic critics of various parts of the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) agreement launched two separate letters to President Barack Obama laying down markers on issues ranging from Japan’s farm tariffs to the “Buy America” provisions regarding US government procurement. In the next installment of this series, Richard Katz will lay out a scenario of what would be required to get TPP through Congress and a discussion of whether those conditions are being met.
