Key U.S. senator announces concerns with fast-track legislation
WASHINGTON, May 12 (Reuters) - U.S. Senator Ron Wyden, a leading Democrat behind "fast-track" trade negotiating authority, announced he will vote "no" on a procedural step on Tuesday that is designed to clear the way for debating the controversial legislation President Barack Obama badly wants.
