28 Jan 10 Days to Stop Fast Track

Posted at 10:50h in Activism, Stop Fast Track by

The BCTGM is part of a network of organizations joining together in opposition of the Camp-Baucus Fast Track legislation, “The Bipartisan Congressional Trade Priorities Act” (HR 3830/S 1900). This legislation would revive the outdated and unsound 2002 “Fast Track” Trade Promotion Authority mechanism.

The BCTGM International Union is among the 564 organizations to sign a letter delivered to Congress yesterday.

January 31 is the TPP DAY OF ACTION with rallies planned in more than 40 cities across North America. The largest of these events will take place in Chicago, Dallas, San Francisco and Portland, Ore.  (See below for details.)

If you attend any of these events, please submit photos of you and your union brothers and sisters.  Remember to list your names, local union and event location. We’d love to feature your efforts to oppose Fast Track in our publications and online.
