This is also one of those times when calling your Senator can work. The ones voting for it are kind of hoping that nobody notices. A lot of angry phone calls will convince them otherwise and could help give them cold feet.
It helps that there's not really a cohesive voting bloc in favor of the trade negotiations. It's just about the billionaires.
