Future trade agreements will not have the luxury of getting amendments or even an argument from lawmakers in Washington if the Fast Track bill for trade agreements is agreed upon by both chambers of Congress. The House already passed the bill, H.R. 2146, last week. Today by a vote of 60-37 in favor the Senate version of the "Fast Track" bill for trade agreements. The last steps for the bill to become law are reconciliation between the House and Senate versions of the bill and President Obama's signature.
