National Fast Track Call-In Day
Posted On: Jun 03, 2015

Today, people all over the country are making calls to their lawmakers to let them know that working folks absolutely cannot afford another bad trade deal.

Our IATSE President, Matthew D Loeb, is asking all IATSE members to make this call to stop this terrible bill.  I made the call and it took 30seconds!  I dialed the number and was directed to Congressman Stephen Lynch’s office and ask that he vote NO.  I was told he is opposed to this bill.

We need to let them know we’ve got the facts and we don’t support Fast Track. In the past, deals that were passed using the Fast Track process deepened our trade deficit, weakened our manufacturing sector, pushed wages down and increased the 1 percent’s control on our economy. More of these bad policies will shrink our paychecks and stifle middle-class growth.

Not only does Fast Track encourage the passage of bad trade deals, but it also will tie the hands of members of Congress and prevent them from improving bad deals or telling the negotiators the deal won’t get a vote unless they go back to the drawing board. We deserve better than a policy that limits Congress to a simple up or down vote on trade deals that will affect working families everywhere.

I believe that we can win this, but we have to act now. 

Call today: 1-855-712-8441.

Wini Peterson, President
