Have your say on the Trans-Pacific trade agreement before the election! Send the Minister for Trade and the Opposition Trade Spokesperson a message, or see your local MP

The Trans-Pacific Partnership trade agreement (TPPA) is being negotiated between Australia, the US, Canada, Mexico, New Zealand, Chile, Peru, Brunei, Singapore, Malaysia Vietnam and Japan. The agenda is being heavily influenced by US corporations which regard many areas of Australian public interest regulation as barriers to trade. As pressure mounts to finish the negotiations and the federal election looms, email Richard Marles and Julie Bishop directly to tell them your concerns about the TPPA and its corporate-influenced agenda.
