Q1
TPP: The Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP), or the Trans Pacific Partnership Agreement (TPPA), is a trade agreement between Australia, Brunei, Canada, Chile, Japan, Malaysia, Mexico, New Zealand, Peru, Singapore, the United States (until January 23, 2017) and Vietnam.
The TPP is a trade deal that many agriculture supporters say is crucial to agiculture trade and America's agriculture economy. Although the trade agreement was signed in February 2016, the agreement has yet to be submitted to U.S. Congress, which triggers a countdown to a vote on the agreement. Presumptive GOP Presidential Nominee Donald Trump says he would cancel the pending trade deal if elected. While Hillary Clinton from the Democratic Party once helped negotiate the TPP, denounced it later. So, the TPP became a big sticking point during the election season.
