Democrats
in the House continue to obstruct implementation of this trade agreement and
are responsible for the delays in US job creation this agreement is designed to
provide.
United
States-Mexico-Canada Agreement
Under the leadership of
President Donald J. Trump, the United States has reached an agreement with
Mexico and Canada in the renegotiation of the North American Free Trade
Agreement (NAFTA). The new United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA) is a
mutually beneficial win for North American workers, farmers, ranchers, and
businesses. When finalized and implemented, the agreement will create more
balanced, reciprocal trade that supports high-paying jobs for Americans and
grows the North American economy.
Agreement highlights
include:
Creating a more level
playing field for American workers, including improved rules of origin for
automobiles, trucks, other products, and disciplines on currency manipulation.
Benefiting American
farmers, ranchers, and agribusinesses by modernizing and strengthening food and
agriculture trade in North America.
Supporting a 21st Century
economy through new protections for U.S. intellectual property, and ensuring
opportunities for trade in U.S. services.
New chapters covering
Digital Trade, Anticorruption, and Good Regulatory Practices, as well as a
chapter devoted to ensuring that Small and Medium Sized Enterprises benefit
from the Agreement.

While the United States,
Mexico, and Canada have concluded a new, rebalanced agreement, NAFTA currently
remains in effect. The USMCA can come into effect following the completion of
TPA procedures, including a Congressional vote on an implementing bill.
