The platform needs to be clear on this specific issue. Since both Sanders and Clinton oppose TPP, there should be no problem about including this language.

We need this for fairness in this process.

Bernie and Hillary oppose the TPP. Let's get it in the platform so we can avoid Trump upstaging us by declaring that we obstructed this that Obama could pass this in a lame duck session and we know he will !

We should make this platform as definitive as possible. We do not want the TPP!

In the interest of providing a truly democratic convention, the voice of the minority must be heard.

Delegates on both sides are opposed to the TPP. Hillary has stated she is opposed. This needs to be included in the platform. The majority of the people in the US oppose TPP.

Hillary has supported TPP in the past and may once again in the future. Her VP pick, Tim Kaine, is an advocate for TPP. We must make it clear to the Democratic Party that this is not the type of policy we want them to support.

This requires attention from the Chairs of the committee. Our voices should be heard as part of the Democratic Party on issues that were NOT ADOPTED by the committee.

There's no point in Bernie delegates being at the convention if we're not going to fight for what's best for this country and its people.

TPP allowed for corporate governance to over rule federal laws we can be sued for inhibiting trade if our domestic laws provide perceived barriers to trade like our EPA controls or FDA standards…

We must come together to stand against the TPP! Donald Trump should not be able to use the TPP against us!

2016 should be the election year that showcases the fairness and inclusiveness of the Democratic Party.

The best way to insure unity and the addition of Bernie supporters into the process is by letting the public see some of the sausage making. Transparent democracy only makes our party stronger and our candidates more attractive. Thump Trump!

TPP would be better named SHAFTA!! Southern Hemisphere Asian Freetrade Agreement. This needs to be stopped or USA loses it national solvency. Take time to totally reevaluate IN PUBLIC ARENA!!

The Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP), if passed, would lock in and expand policies that keep cancer medicines unaffordably high and could prevent some of your constituents from accessing the medicines they need to stay alive. I stand with cancer patients, survivors, and their loved ones in urging you to publicly commit now to oppose the TPP when it comes to Congress for a vote, as well as espectfully request that you extend the time period so that the Hightower Amendment can be brought up for a vote on the floor of the Convention.

TPP enslaves us further to the global corporatocracy that already compromised my sons future sovereignty.

Don't let the Repugs have a stronger TPP plank than the Dems!
