“Entrenching patent monopolies contradicts Obama’s stated goals of ‘saving the world’s children from preventable deaths’ and ‘realizing the promise of an AIDS-free generation.’ This contradiction between the TPP and the U.S. government’s stated commitment to public health has been apparent for a while.
