Government Report Shows Potential Trans Pacific Partnership Impact (Bryan Riley, May 23, 2016, Daily Signal)
According to the U.S. International Trade Commission, the agreement would boost both U.S. employment and GDP.By year 15 (2032), U.S. annual real income would be $57.3 billion (0.23 percent) higher than the baseline projections, real GDP would be $42.7 billion (0.15 percent) higher, and employment would be 0.07 percent higher (128,000 full-time equivalents).The International Trade Commission's findings are based on proposed cuts in tariff and non-tariff trade barriers affecting goods and services, reduced investment barriers, and intellectual property provisions.
