It's Alive"U.S. Trade Rep: Congress Has the Votes to Pass TPP

"If they [House and Senate leaders] bring it forward, I think we can get the votes there," Froman told NBC on Tuesday.

Hillary Clinton was a vocal proponent of the TPP–having reportedly praised the deal at least 45 times–and played a "leading part in drafting" the deal before she was eventually forced to distance herself from her prior support for political reasons.

Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump has previously argued that Clinton only says she's against the TPP because she was "shamed" into doing so, and has warned that, if she is elected President, Clinton "will immediately approve it [TPP] if it is put before her."

"Here's how it would go," Trump has explained, "She would make a small token change, declare the pact fixed, and ram it through. That's why Hillary is now only saying she has problems with the TPP 'in its current form,' – ensuring that she can rush to embrace it again at her earliest opportunity."
