Thune Optimistic on Trade Promotion Authority Bill Despite Setback

“Unfortunately, Senate Democrats have chosen to block their own president’s agenda, uniting against one of his top policy priorities …”

John_Thune,_official_portrait,_111th_CongressWASHINGTON, D.C.—U.S. Sen. John Thune (R-S.D.) issued the following statement after Senate Democrats obstructed consideration of H.R. 1314, the TPA legislation:

“The sooner Congress renews the bipartisan trade promotion authority legislation, the sooner South Dakota consumers, workers, and job creators can experience the benefits of a healthier economy. Unfortunately, Senate Democrats have chosen to block their own president’s agenda, uniting against one of his top policy priorities while, so far, President Obama has failed to adequately make his case among his own party. This is a setback, but I am hopeful that the Senate can find a path forward to pass this legislation, which is essential to securing free and fair trade agreements and providing access to new markets for American farmers, ranchers, and manufacturers.”

  1. Secret deals drafted by lobbyists for multinational corporations? No thanks to Obamatrade. Elizabeth Warren is right on this one.

    1. Kind of like the secret deals on HB1234 that result in campaign contributions and influential RINO endorsements?

      All in a days work for a false teacher con-artist all about himself..

      1. Rep Hickey it looks like you have a stalker. Curious to know just how far this person takes it. Offline also? It’s the same person.

    2. “Secret deals drafted by lobbyists for multinational corporations? No thanks to Obamatrade. Elizabeth Warren is right on this one.”

      Steve’s right, and not all of the Republicans who voted for cloture support the legislation itself. Hopefully Senate Democrats won’t cave.

  2. Yes, I have someone here on DWC who despises me. Not sure why Pat tolerates them. God bless them. It’s this kind of venom that keeps legislators from the discussion on this blog.

    Basically I wrote a book ten years ago on the pastoral epistles as they are known is scholarly circles (1/2 Timothy and Titus) and I called them apostolic epistles and was the first to do so. It was controversial then but not so much any more. Hugely misunderstood by people like Sibby who aren’t studied up on what the Bible says about the matter. Whoever this person is spreads Sibbys false accusations.

    I address the matter of the apostle controversy on my church website;
