Oregon: Reps Earl Blumenauer, Susan Bonamici, and Sen Ron Wyden voted FOR TPA [View all]

What are we to do about this? ... The general liberal consensus regarding TPP is very much AGAINST this pitiful corporate power grab, and there is no doubt that each voted in favor of TPA against the wishes of their own constituents ...

There should be a political price to pay for this treachery ... What will that price be?

We need a source of social democrats to run against these ... These .... Democrats ...

Where are the challengers?
