As former Labor Secretary Robert Reich has warned. the consequences could be disastrous. He calls the TPP "a Trojan horse in a global race to the bottom. giving big corporations and Wall Street a way to eliminate any and all laws and regulations that get in the way of their profits." We should set this aside and not go to this today. Lets work together as Democrats and Republicans for a true middleclass agenda. for a robust investment in our roads. bridges. and highways. and to fix our immigration system. I see Senator LEAHY is on the floor. He put together a comprehensive immigration reform bill that was amazing. but it was stopped and never happened. We have workers in the dark who are afraid to come out into the sunlight. and that puts a downward pressure on wages. Lets pass that.
