George Rappolt signed TPP Petition 2013-12-09 21:05:03 -0600
It’s my understanding that TPP is much broader than SOPA/PIPA, affecting many things beyond the Internet, and that as far as anyone has been able to find out from leaks of the secret negotiations, almost none of it is good. We really need to find out what’s in this thing, and if it does what it’s said to do, we need to stop it.

tpp-why_so_secret.jpgShould Coffee Party USA take a position opposing the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP), as we did with the similar SOPA/PIPA bill?

If you think so, please sign this petition and share it with your friends. If we are to take action, we'll need to take it soon!

UPDATE: We hit our first 100 250 signatures. Great job!!! The new goal is now 500.

A: (I answered yes.)

Your Opinion, Please

Has our country reached a tipping point where those who have more money (speech) are now an unstoppable force in American politics?

Since 2010 the Coffee Party USA path has included identifying and advocating for legislative fixes to reform campaign finance laws, Wall Street regulations, and the tax code.

Three years of post Citizen United governance has made it clear that there is a need to shift our focus to campaign finance reform.

We must fight the super-minority of big money contributions and corporations with super-citizen rights to buy candidates with mega-donations.

Until our lawmakers are no longer influenced by fear marketing, lobbyists, and “helpful” self-interest groups who all tempt them with employment after they leave office, our elected officials will look to funders rather than voters when legislative decisions are made.

Help us defeat POLITICS FOR PROFIT!

We will not abandon our call to “incite civility and reason”.

Do you agree that Money-in-Politics should be the primary focus for Coffee Party? Your opinion matters.

Thanks for taking part in our survey. As you know, Coffee Party is crowd sourced by people like you. We thank you in advance for your support.
