Media outlets are reporting today that Speaker Nancy Pelosi has said an agreement has been reached on USMCA and “We could as early as next week see the agreement on the House floor,” according to Jack Irvin, Ohio Farm Bureau senior director of state and national affairs
“I’m not going to pretend like I’m not a little bit surprised, but very pleasantly surprised. And we’re going to keep pushing and see we get this thing done,” he said.
Designed to replace the North American Free Trade Agreement, the USMCA builds on important trade relationships in North America.
“We urge members of Congress to swiftly approve the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement. Agriculture is at a critical crossroads with the downturn in commodity prices, losses from natural disasters and the trade war. This is an opportunity for Congress not only to help U.S. farmers and ranchers turn the corner on trade, but also show that Washington can still get things done on a bipartisan basis.
Ratification of the USMCA would build on the momentum of the U.S.-Japan agreement, which gave a major boost to American agricultural products in our fourth-largest market, and send a signal that the U.S. is back in business in the international marketplace.
We urge Congress to work toward speedy approval. America’s farms and ranches are depending on you.”
