there is a little more transparency than the fasttrack proposal a couple of years ago or fasttrack of 10 years ago. a little more transparency, a little more access to the public maybe, for tpp than there was in the past. it sounds like the same promises and nothing really has changed. president obama pledged in cleveland, ohio, i was an audience, in a debate with then senator clinton, senator obama promised as the clinton that he or she would renegotiate nafta. we have not seen that. these promises have been empty by administrations of both parties. reporter: canada and mexico would be part of the transpacific partnership, that is the 12 country trade debate. is this a chance to renegotiate nafta? sen. brown: that is what they say, but they are not really renegotiating nafta. in fact, some of the country of origin rules may be worse than they were. we don't know that for sure because the trade rep will not talk to us about those things. the synchronous -- secret andness of this trade agreement is astounding. again, the reason this is the past, the bill was only introduce on thursday.

those who say whatever you do with fasttrack in general, it cannot apply with the agreement.that front, whatever is said with what is in the fasttrack will not be affected in the agreement. but the dirty little secret is all the 40 pages of negotiating objectives are not negotiable. the reason is, whether or not the executive branch gets those objectives in an agreement, all the special delegate authorities apply. the president has delegated the authority to sign the agreement they have the right to write the legislation that does not go to committee. boom, onto the floor. whether or not it is the objective, and 90 day guarantee vote, even in the senate. here is another secret, the fasttrack in 1988, it has labor provisions in it. a new idea, no. why? totally unenforceable objectives. if you do a side-by-side comparison come which folks can see if they go to the ways and means committee, where forward, they are about 100 words different than the previous fast track. they do not make any objectives enforceable. host: we will start with michael in california, independent line.
