U.S. Congress rejected. I am not even saying we should reject it; I, in fact, lean toward it. But I think we have to be
very careful, because it is a very big transfer of power.
Article 1, Section 8 of the constitution says, The Congress shall have Power to regulate Commerce with foreign
Nations. This is an essential component to our national sovereignty and independence.
Six years ago, the United States signed a trans-Atlantic economic integration plan with the EU. On February 12,
2014, President Obama said he intended to complete negotiations on the Trans-Pacific Partnership and to launch
talks on a comprehensive Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership with the European Union in this state of
the Union speech. On July 8, 2014, representatives from the United States and EU met in Washington, D.C., for one
week to begin negotiations on the TTIP with the goal of economic integration of the United States and EU.
Andrew Reding of the World Policy Institute has written:
With economic integration will come political integration...One of the purposes of NAFTA and other international
trade agreements is to set the principles by which such decisions are to be made, including the critical question of
how to harmonize differing labor, consumer, environmental, and other standards. By whatever name, this is an
incipient form of international government.
Globalists, socialists, and communists promote regional blocs that destroy national sovereignty. The ultimate goal is
to merge regions allowing for world government. The TPA is a direct attack on this countys constitutional checks and
balances. It is represents and unconstitutional usurpation of the legislative powers of Congress and you know it.
The first sentence in the Constitution says, All legislative powers herein granted shall be vested in a Congress of the
United States. (Article I, Section 1) The TPA destroys this requirement without amending the constitution. Passage
also eliminates congress ability to judge the pros and cons thus subjecting U.S sovereignty to the dictates of the
Trans- Pacific Partnership and the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership to foreign bureaucracies,
agencies, and courts that hate our constitution. As designed, these agreements subvert American sovereignty by
forcing economic and political integration with certain Pacific Rim nations and the European Union, respectively.
These facts and combined with your reply begs the question: Is there a part of the Communist Manifesto you do not
support and swear an oath to? A constituent wants to know.
