SEE: Lawmakers reach deal on 'fast track' trade authority
April 16, 2015
”WASHINGTON — Top lawmakers reached a deal Thursday on legislation to grant President Obama "fast track" trade authority to advance one of the largest trade pacts in history, a step that could set off one of the sharpest legislative battles of the year and put Democratic unity to the test.
The bill is a top priority for the administration and congressional Republicans, but the fast track bill and the underlying Trans-Pacific Partnership, a trade deal between the U.S. and 11 Asia-Pacific nations, is roundly opposed by major labor unions and most congressional Democrats.”
The power which Paul Ryan wants Obama to usurp and exercise is Fast-track trade power. I say usurp because Congress cannot delegate a power which is exclusively placed in the Legislatures’ hands. This proposed power would remove the people’s representatives from Congress’ assigned duty to debate, create, amend, and adopt legislation regulating commerce with foreign nations.
Fast-track trade power would allow the President to negotiate trade deals with foreign nations in secret and effectively eliminate the American People’s Representatives from their assigned duty to create legislation regulating commerce with foreign nations. Congress would no longer create the legislation and the process of adding corrective amendments to Obama’s deals to insure they promote America’s best interests would be totally circumvented. The only part Congress would have in the President’s fast-track trade power would be an up or down vote within 90 days upon receiving the presidents' deal which leaves little time to even allow the people’s representatives to read and study the deal and then debate it before a vote.
This Fast-tract trade authority is a Chamber of Commerce’s idea to remove the people’s Representatives from amending bad trade deals struck by Obama in secret which are not in the best interests of America, but rather, are deals beneficial to international corporate giants who have no allegiance to America or promoting the general welfare of the United States.
Every member of the House and Senate who supports this attempt to usurp Congress’ power to regulate commerce with foreign nations, and allow Obama to exercise this power which is exclusively placed in Congress’ hands ought to be viewed as a dangerous domestic enemy of the United States and subversive of our Constitutionally limited system of government.
GOP ringleaders behind Obama-Trade authority are Senator Mitch McConnell from Kentucky, Senator Orrin Hatch, Utah, and our little weasel from Wisconsin, Paul Ryan.
Just remember exactly what these snakes are attempting to do, which is to circumvent the process of having the people’s Representatives creating legislation, debating it, amending it and then adopting it. Their intention is to effectively exclude the people’s elected Representatives from the legislative process as it was intended to operate by our founding fathers.

To support Jeb Bush is to support our Global Governance crowd and their WTO, NAFTA, GATT, and CAFTA, all used to circumvent America First trade policies, while fattening the fortunes of international corporate giants who have no allegiance to America or any nation.
