The Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) will massively boost corporate
power at the expense of our climate and environment, human and
workers’ rights, sovereignty and democracy. We strongly urge you to publish
the text of the TPP as it stands now, reject proposals that would undermine
your regulatory power and oppose this corporate power-grab
Why is this important?
The Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) is a highly secretive and expansive free
trade agreement between the United States and twelve Pacific Rim countries,
including Canada, Mexico, New Zealand and Australia. Leaked text reveals
that the TPP would empower corporations to directly sue governments in
private and non-transparent trade tribunals over laws and policies that
corporations allege reduce their profits.
Legislation designed to address climate change, curb fossil fuel expansion and
reduce air pollution could all be subject to attack by corporations as a result of
TPP. Additionally, the deal could criminalize internet use, undermine workers’
and human rights, manipulate copyright laws, restrict government regulation of
food labeling and adversely impact subsidized healthcare.
The movement we are building locally, nationally and globally to move beyond
fossil fuels and create a safe climate future is growing by the day and the fossil
fuel industry is getting scared of the uncertainty ahead. The TPP is a symptom
of this fear – a massive bid to overthrow any restrictions we might throw at
them. But we can stop this. The might of our movement is greater than their
money or manipulation.
2. Sign this petition to show our governments that we won’t stand for foreign
corporations disabling our sovereignty, democratic processes or the right to a
safe future.
