John -- 

For the past few months, we've been hard at work 
finalizing the Trans-Pacific Partnership -- a trade 
agreement that puts American workers first, helps 
middle-class families get ahead, and levels the playing 
field for American farmers, ranchers, and manufacturers. 

Last week, my administration reached that agreement 
with 11 other countries. That's good news for the global 
economy, and it's good news for American families and 
workers.

This wasn't a sure thing -- it took an incredible amount 
of organizing to get here, and OFA is one of the groups 
that has been fighting for leadership on trade.

Now that the deal is agreed to, I want to make sure folks 
have the facts about the Trans-Pacific Partnership before 
it comes to a vote -- if a trade agreement that puts American 
workers first is important to you, you can add your name 
with OFA to join the conversation:

Over the next few months, this agreement will be discussed 
and debated. It's important to remember that with 95% of 
the world's customers outside the United States and nearly 
12 million American jobs supported by exports of products 
made in America, we can't leave it to other nations to uphold 
the values we care about -- we need trade agreements with 
tough, enforceable environmental and labor standards.

From the day I took office, I've fought for middle-class 
families, and this trade deal is no different.

But it's going to take organizing to help this agreement pass 
-- one way to get started is to add your name with OFA to 
show your support:

Stay tuned -- more soon,

Barack Obama
