Secretary Clinton's voice is being requested regarding this partnership authority and the resultant agreements.
Senator Brown of Ohio has a lot on the line when it comes to trade deals. He isn't the only one, but, evidently he does value the leadership of Secretary Clinton.

In
what is sure to be one of the toughest fights of Mr. Obama’s last 19
months in office, the “fast track” bill allowing the White House to
pursue its planned Pacific trade deal also heralds a divisive fight
within the Democratic Party, one that could spill into the 2016
presidential campaign....
...Sherrod Brown of Ohio are demanding to know Hillary Rodham Clinton’s position on the bill to give the president so-called trade promotion authority, or T.P.A....
Secretary Clinton must bring her knowledge of international trade both from her State Department days and those with The Clinton Foundation. We know she knows what to do. It is imperative she brings her insight during those 60 days so her leadership will not be impacted by adverse outcomes from these trade agreements.
...The bill would make any final trade agreement open to public comment for 60 days before the president signs it, and up to four months before Congress votes. If the agreement, negotiated by the United States trade representative, fails to meet the objectives laid out by Congress — on labor, environmental and human rights standards — a 60-vote majority in the Senate could shut off “fast-track” trade rules and open the deal to amendment....
I would ask her to participate with knowledge the unions can submit to her through her presidential campaign headquarters. This is a huge issue for the American people. We have worked hard to recover from the global economic collapse and we can't be betrayed only to return to increased rates of poverty.
Her current statement is correct. Trade is necessary, but, it should never compromise human rights which includes environmental factors. People can't live if Earth is unlivable. Environmental factors are not just those experienced at work, but, emissions that cause danger of any kind from manufacturing has to be factor in trade from here into the future.
The past administration ended human rights conditions and environmental concerns, this sounds as though this is a return to American morality with trade issues. That doesn't mean we have to give away every bit of recovery we have accomplished.
Trade is important, but, should never compromise the American worker. The USA is still recovering it's Middle Class. We are seeing interest in increased wages to end corporate welfare, but, those changes haven't come to every American working to improve their status.
Secretary Clinton knows children don't thrive well in poverty. She can impact these trade agreements before President Obama signs them. We want fairness. We want good wages. We want our unions. We want pensions. We want to be healthy. The American worker and our history demands every generation to do better than the one before. We fell off that standard during the previous administration only to be completely abandoned to a global economic collapse. The American worker and small business was abandoned in 2008, we just can't go back to trusting Wall Street. We need assurances our economy will remain intact while our historical standard is returned to us.
If GM sells more cars abroad, that would be great news for Americans; but; if GM sells more cars abroad because they have moved manufacturing to China or India that will implode the American economy. If that occurs, then we won't just have to worry about Japanese imports, we'll have to worry about GM imports while we find a way to rebuild our manufacturing sector.
The American people need reassures, Secretary Clinton.
