NAFTA | USMCA
The US House of Representatives overwhelmingly passed the new North American trade deal.
On paper, Mexican workers should be big winners from the new Nafta. They’re not holding their breath.
The trade accord to revamp Nafta cleared the Ways and Means Committee, sending the measure to the full House.
Mexico said it was satisfied by US assurances it was not sending inspectors.
An annex for the implementation of the treaty, the result of political decisions by Congress and the Administration in the United States, was not consulted with Mexico, said Mexico’s deputy foreign minister.
The proposed replacement of NAFTA remains a tool for corporate interests and provides insufficient relief to address the problems for working people embedded in the original agreement.
More than half of the new trade agreement simply modernizes provisions already contained in NAFTA.
