Washington, May 26 (RHC)-- The U.S. Senate has approved a measure to give President Barack Obama fast-track authority to negotiate the secretive Trans-Pacific Partnership trade deal, then introduce it to Congress with no amendments allowed.

Critics, including a number of Democratic lawmakers, oppose the TPP, saying it will fuel inequality, kill jobs, and undermine health, environmental and financial regulations. The fast-track bill will head to the House of Representatives next month, where it is expected to face a tougher battle.
