While Attention Was Diverted To Charleston, House Passed Unconstitutional TPA

I admit that there are always things that seem to be used in order to cover up other things that are being done. Last week the House shot down the Trade Adjustment Assistance bill, but passed the Trade Promotion Authority (both are unconstitutional). With the coverage of the Charleston Church shooting in South Carolina, the House advanced the TPA again, and this time it passed.   http://freedomoutpost.com/2015/06/charleston-shooting-suspect-dylan...

In a 218-208 vote (previous vote was 219-211), with 28 Democrats and 50 Republicans voting in favor of the bill, the House advanced the fast track bill which would illegally delegate authority to the Executive Branch to work out trade agreements. As I’ve pointed out before, trade agreements involve tariffs (taxes). As such, those must originate in the House of Representatives.      http://freedomoutpost.com/2015/06/congress-engages-in-wwe-with-tpa/

Article I, Section 7 of the US Constitution states:      http://freedomoutpost.com/2013/03/congress-enumerated-powers/

All Bills for raising Revenue shall originate in the House of Representatives…

This is not a treaty, it’s a trade agreement. Too many people are confusing the TPA with the Trans-Pacific Partnership, which is a treaty. I do believe confusion is exactly what is being perpetrated on the American people at this point in order to advance the agenda.  http://freedomoutpost.com/2013/07/publius-huldah-treaties-when-are-...      http://freedomoutpost.com/?s=trans-pacific+partnership                             http://freedomoutpost.com/2015/06/while-your-attention-was-diverted...
