Fifteen House Republicans are calling for the Obama administration to drop its resistance to including regulatory cooperation on the financial services sector in the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP) or risk losing congressional support for the agreement and running afoul of the fast-track law, according to an April 14 letter to President Obama. "To earn congressional support, a successful TTIP agreement must address both market access and regulatory cooperation mechanisms for all sectors to unlock its full value," they wrote. The letter was spearheaded by Rep. Bill Huizenga (R-MI), the chairman of the Financial Services Monetary Policy and Trade subcommittee, and signed by 11 other members of the Financial Services Committee.
