Dear Daniel, This is huge: a plan to transform the Internet is being finalized in secret meetings taking place around the world. Over 3.1 million have already spoken out, but we need all hands on deck at this crucial moment. Click HERE to join our friends at OpenMedia in fighting back. Here's the situation: right now, industry lobbyists are pressuring key decision-makers of twelve countries to sign a secretive agreement called the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP). The Obama administration even wants fast-track authority to force a yes or no vote on the plan from Congress without any public input or debate. There's a reason these negotiations are happening in secret. We know from leaked documents that if we sign on to the TPP, ISPs could end up acting as "Internet Police" monitoring our Internet use, censoring content, and removing whole websites. Dubbed "NAFTA on steroids," the trade agreement also threatens to kill jobs, undermine environmental regulations and thwart attempts to rein in Wall Street. We need your help to fight back. Over 3.1 million people have already spoken out against the secrecy of the TPP, but we need you to join them. Will the President feel the pressure from industry lobbyists or will he feel the pressure from you? Join OpenMedia in sending decision makers a powerful message before it's too late. All the best, Sarah Arnold
