Fast Track Authority Passed In Surprise Vote, 218-206
June 18, 2015

UPDATE: It passed. Details later.

They're voting on the fast track debate rules right now, and they're attacked the fast track authority to a climate change bill. (Of course.)

Even if your rep voted against fast track the last time doesn't mean they're going to do it again, so we still need your calls. The AFL-CIO has a handy tool where you put in your cell number, they call you back and connect you with your congress person. Click here.

Via an email last night from Alan Grayson, he's also asking voters to target these members:

Let me get right to the point; then I’ll dawdle later. There will be a surprise House vote on the Fast Track trade giveaway bill tomorrow. (TODAY) It will be a very close vote. If you want Fast Track to fail, you should call one or more of these Democrats, who voted in favor of Fast Track last week. If only four of them vote against it tomorrow, then we will win. Here is the list:
