Hey everyone. We’re down to our last line of defense in the fight against Fast Track and the Trans-Pacific Partnership. We’ve always known it’d come down to the House of Representatives, and now that we’re here we need to go big, fast. Take 2 minutes to contact your Representatives, then forward this e-mail to a friend and ask them to do the same.

This
is our last chance to stop Fast Track. President Obama is certain to
sign it if it reaches his desk, which means If we’re going to stop this
it’s now or never.
If
we stop Fast Track, we stop the TPP. It’s that simple. A TPP
ministerial in Japan was already cancelled because your calls and emails
have successfully delayed Fast Track so many times.
From
the beginning we’ve known the fight was going to come down to a close
vote in the House of Representatives — the question was how much
momentum Fast Track would have when it got here.
Because
of the action taken by people like you, it took multiple votes for Fast
Track to clear the Senate, but now lobbyists that want the TPP bad are
pulling out all the stops.
What we’ve done so far is working, but we could still lose everything if we don’t push hard right now.
This is a fight that we need to win. We can do it, but time is short, so please speak out today and forward this email to others who you think will take action.

P.S. For one amazing day it was illegal for the US government to track Americans' phone calls. But yesterday afternoon, Congress passed the "USA Freedom Act" and turned mass spying back on. It's worth noting that some groups we respect are celebrating its passage as a win. We disagree, and we think it's important to explain why. Check out our statement here.
