Thom Hartmann: Bernie Sanders Vows to Stop 'Disastrous' TPP Deal

[thomhartmann]

Patty Lovera, Food & Water Watch joins Thom. When the five candidates take the stage in Las Vegas for the first Democratic debate of the 2016 elections - one of the biggest points of discussion will likely be the Trans-Pacific Partnership. The two Democratic frontrunners - Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders have both said they oppose deal - with Sanders even saying that he will fight against it in the Senate. So far - most of the discussion about the TPP has been about how it will hurt jobs and punish workers who've already lost out on every so-called free trade deal of the past few decades. But one of the most dangerous - and least talked about - parts of the TPP is how it will affect the food we eat and feed our families every single day.
