Five major organizations have joined together as co-leaders of the U.S. Coalition for TPP to push for the passage of the Trans Pacific Partnership trade agreement.

The co-leaders are the American Farm Bureau Federation, Business Roundtable, Emergency Committee for American Trade, National Association of Manufacturers, and U.S. Chamber of Commerce.
