  • Obama said in a statement the bipartisan vote is an "important step toward ensuring the United States can negotiate and enforce strong, high-standards trade agreements" and he called on the House to pass the package "as soon as possible."
  • The Senate voted 62-37 to pass the trade bill, which includes a key trade promotion authority (TPA) measure that would help complete a sweeping Asia-Pacific trade deal.
