Adjunct Professor Matt Gold was quoted in U.S. News & World Report article about congressional Democrats’ view of the Trans-Pacific Partnership.
Matthew A. Gold, a former principal negotiator for the U.S. at the NAFTA Free Trade Commission talks, believes many of the Democrats who voted against fast-track are putting up nominal opposition but deep down wouldn’t mind seeing the Trans-Pacific Partnership enacted.
“It’s going to be approved. It’s a near certainty,” he says. “The bigger battle was getting fast-track enacted.”
“It’s like a train,” he says. “There are going to be some people standing on the tracks, but there’s no way to stop the train.”
