US-SENATE TTIP LETTER TO FROMAN FROM 22 APRIL 2016

 Bitter tasting news: In a letter to US Trade Representative Froman, 26 Memebers of the US Senate insist that #TTIP has to break down regulatory barriers in the food industry and agriculture. More precisely, the signatories demand to lower European standards for "hormone use in US beef, maximum residue limits in fruits and vegetables and dairy certification requirements". If the final agreement does not include these claims, it "could have a negative impact on Congressional support for this deal". #StopTTIP
