LETS REVIEW
Do not hesitate to offer critique of this interpretation or clarification of vaguery/error, included [citation needed] where applicable
TPA is in cloture, which essentially means further debate on the matter is limited to an addition 30 hours, thus circumventing the filibuster (ie the STALL IT! tactic has been defeated).
Once debate has concluded, there will be another vote by the Senate.
Should that vote pass (A vote of at least 61 Approving/no more than 39 Disproving required; today's vote regarding cloture saw 65 Approving, Tuesday's vote saw a very narrow margin of Disproving allowing TPA to be halted), it will likely have to go to the House, where it will face another battle - but, if there appears to be 'momentum' behind the legislation, its possible it may do so (and/or that arrangements have already been made for such), or that this may be circumvented altogether (clarification requested on this matter).
Should TPA pass the Senate (requiring at least 61 Approving/no more than 39 Disproving), and (if necessary) the House, the following will be the case:
> The Executive branch can negotiate trade agreements with foreign powers, according to a vague and likely-irrelevant set of guidelines set by Congress; however, once such an agreement is presented - to the Senate, but not the House (IIRC) - the representatives are restricted in how they may respond, no longer able to add amendments nor to debate in greater detail: In other words, they must vote, yes or no, on the matter.
> Further, under TPA, a Senatorial majority will be all that is required - at present, as described above, a significant majority (61 Aye/39 Nay) must be obtained; however, under TPA, a simple majority decision (51 Aye/49 Nay) will be required for approval… To clarify, TPA takes away Senatorial power to resist passage of legislation, and makes it easier to pass legislation based on vote - a double wammy for reduction in representatives' capacity for action as regards passage of legislation…
… Such as TPP.
So, to go back to the start…
TPA is in cloture.
That means a maximum of 30 hours of debate on the topic moving forward.
This, coupled with analyst insight and statements on behalf of the participants (Senators), suggests the final vote will occur sometime next week, 'hopefully' by the end of the week (these hopes espoused by those Senatorial forces hoping to pass the legislation).
It is entirely possible it will not pass… However, given the circumstances, it is unquestionable that further efforts will be made to push this piece of legislative garbage through, which isn't overtly difficult given they can simple request further votes and/or make slight alterations (to better conceal some aspects; or to include political deals within US politics, which are as-likely to be detrimental to the American people as beneficial; and which would be external to the integral aspects of TPP, which will almost-certainly remain unaltered) before reintroduction for a vote.
IOW, this shit will likely get pushed through the Senate eventually, unless a lot of stink is made over it and keeps getting made anytime it rears its ugly head…
