Coalition pushes for USMCA approval

A coalition of more than 200 groups has formed to urge Congress to pass the U.S. Mexico Canada Agreement (USMCA). 

The American Farm Bureau, the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, and the Association of Equipment Manufacturers are among the groups.

Dennis Slater, President of AEM says since NAFTA went into place two decades ago it has helped make U.S. equipment makers more competitive in the world and as created hundreds of thousands of “good paying jobs” in the U.S. and Canada.

Slater says the USMCA will guarantee North America’s manufacturing competitiveness and urges Congress to quickly ratify it.
