Changes Needed for USMCA Review to Deliver Benefits to Working People and the Planet

When the US-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA) was signed, President Trump told the nation that his revised NAFTA trade deal would bring “jobs pouring into the United States.” Instead, corporations continue to offshore good-paying jobs to Mexico under the USMCA to take advantage of ongoing worker rights violations, abysmally-low wages and lax pollution controls.

Next month marks the official start of the six-year review of the USMCA, which is almost certain to lead to the pact’s official renegotiation. In anticipation, more than 600 organizations across the country have signed onto a joint set of demands for the USMCA renegotiation to deliver real benefits to working people, family farmers and the environment.

Join us during June’s Trade Justice Power Hour to learn more about the set of demands civil society is making for the negotiations and what you can do to press federal officials to adopt them.
