\"StopTPP\"<\/a>It\u2019s do-or-die time on the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP). \u00a0We need your help in Atlanta ensuring it\u2019s the latter. \u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n

Trade ministers from throughout the Pacific Rim are meeting at a fancy hotel in downtown Atlanta this\u00a0week as part of a last-ditch effort to complete the TPP negotiations. \u00a0They\u2019re getting close, but we can stop them. \u00a0If we do, and the Atlanta round fails, many believe the TPP could be knocked off track indefinitely.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s not just us saying that. \u00a0Just days ago, Japanese Economic and Fiscal Policy Minister Akira Amari said that if the Atlanta TPP round fails to deliver a finished pact, \u201cthere is a risk that an agreement will be put off for years.”<\/p>\n

The TPP threatens the economy, environment and public health at home and abroad \u2014 and we now have a real shot to stop that. \u00a0<\/b>Very rarely do protests have as much\u00a0potential for immediate results as this one.<\/p>\n

We need your help mobilizing as many people as possible to Atlanta. \u00a0This is the main event…<\/p>\n

Atlanta Mobilization to #StopTPP<\/b><\/h2>\n

Thursday, October 1 \u2022 12:00 noon AND 5:00 – 7:00pm
\n<\/b>Woodruff Park\u00a0\u2022\u00a0International Peace Fountain\u00a0<\/b>(Map:\u00a0bit.ly\/ATLStopTPPMap<\/a>)
\nPeachtree St & Auburn Ave \u2022 Downtown Atlanta, GA<\/b><\/p>\n

The Atlanta #StopTPP Coalition calls on all allies across the US and the world to join us on Oct 1st to #StopTPP!<\/i><\/p>\n

Schedule:
\n<\/b>Make Some Noise #StopTPP Rally: 12 – 2 pm
\n#StopTPP Mass Rally: 5 – 7 pm
\nGather for Rallies At:\u00a0<\/b>Woodruff Park – International Peace Fountain

As the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) trade talks are coming to Atlanta in an effort to finalize the pro-corporate deal, the Atlanta #StopTPP\u00a0Coalition and the broader Atlanta community says, \u201cNo Way!\u201d We as citizens in the global community won\u2019t stand for a wholesale auction of our rights, our freedoms, and our democracy to multinational corporations who put profits over people.<\/p>\n

Community members and concerned citizens from labor, faith, youth, senior, environment, LGBT, and others are coming together and inviting all within our United States and the global community to draw a line in the sand in Atlanta and to demand that the TPP shall not pass!<\/p>\n

We will not stand for the TPP corrupting our democracy and eliminating our rights by putting corporations such as Walmart, Chevron, Cargill, and McDonalds in greater control of our daily lives leading us into a global race to the bottom. The undemocratic and secretive TPP would threaten good jobs, public services, access to affordable life-saving medicines, the environment and our climate, consumer health and safety and much more in our communities across the world.<\/p>\n

We call on all allies across the world to join the Atlanta community on Oct 1st as we take on the TPP! We shall not be moved, we shall #StopTPP!<\/p>\n
