POTUS promises Trans Pacific Partnership text (not really)

(well, that's the headline, but the quote from the president doesn't exactly do that: something that the public can take a look at could mean practically anything. don't hold your breath for the actual full text.)

The text of the Trans Pacific Partnership remains secret at the moment, but President Barack Obama intends to present it to the public in November.

According to Reuters, POTUS' remarks were made on Friday after discussing the timeline with New Zealand prime minister John Key during a visit to Washington.

President Obama is planning a November visit to Asia after the USA's November 4 mid-term elections, on a trip that will take in the G20 summit in Australia on November 15 and 16.

The Reuters report quotes Obama as saying: “Our hope is by the time we see each other again in November, when I travel to Asia, we should have something that we have consulted with Congress about, that the public can take a look at, and we can make a forceful argument to go ahead and close the deal”.
