TPP Opponents Likely To Seek Stronger Language In Draft Democratic Platform

摘要

Opponents of the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) are likely to push for stronger language critical of the agreement when the drafting committee for the Democratic platform meets in Orlando, FL on July 8-9 to revise the July 1 version of the document, according to informed sources. Regarding the TPP, the July I draft platform says there is a "diversity of views" in the party. "Many Democrats are on record stating that the agreement does not meet the standards set out in this platform; other Democrats have expressed support for the agreement," it says.
