Tell Congress No More Unfair Trade-Pact Handouts for Bailed Out Banks
Tell Congress No More Unfair Trade-Pact Handouts for Bailed Out Banks
The Issue
As millions of Americans are angry at bank bailouts and bailout fraud, some administration officials are pushing to give more unfair trade-pact handouts to bailed-out banks as "expeditiously as possible." It is unthinkable that Congress would approve a leftover Bush NAFTA deal with Panama - a nation notorious for helping corporations escape paying their fair share. In fact, Panama was just featured on a key list of countries who have have systematically refused to do adopt international tax norms. Public Citizen has just put out a new report showing how bailed out banks would be given outrageous new privileges by this flawed trade deal.
TAKE ACTION: Use the form below to tell your members of Congress that you are outraged that some administration officials would even consider moving Bush's FTA with tax haven Panama. Remind them of President Obama's commitments to renegotiate NAFTA, create a new American trade model that actually benefits us and close the tax loopholes that promote job offshoring. The form will send your e-mail to both of your senators as well as your House representative.
