SnarkosaurusRex 2831 Report post Posted June 13, 2015 It didn't actually pass. All the news I can find says it passed the House, and the scenario has always been about the Senate. There's also this: Republican leaders then passed, in a 219-to-211 vote, a stand-alone bill that would grant the president the trade negotiating authority he sought. But that measure cannot go to the president for his signature because the Senate version of the legislative package combined both trade adjustment and trade promotion. http://www.nytimes.com/2015/06/13/us/politics/obamas-trade-bills-face-tough-battle-against-house-democrats.html Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

feldsy 1099 Report post Posted June 14, 2015 Essentially- Senate passed TPA+TAA (TAA is a thing that helps workers displaced by trade find new jobs, it was put in as part of the bills to sway dems) House passed only TPA Since House and Senate need to pass the same bill for it to become law, what happens next is More negotiating!
