Updated on Sept. 9 at 6 pm: Heads of trade associations from Washington D.C. offices and executives from major companies on Sept. 8 will meet with Obama administration officials at the White House, where sources say the administration will urge attendees to step up lobbying efforts for the Trans-Pacific Partnership as a potential lame-duck session quickly approaches.
Two sources said the administration’s meeting to push for additional TPP lobbying efforts will be more than just a pep rally for the deal, with the White House likely to ask attendees to more seriously engage as the window for TPP’s passage under Obama closes.
