Nancy Pelosi is on the verge of striking a deal with the White House to pass Donald Trump's USMCA trade deal after accord with labor leaders
Daily Mail/UK, Dec 9, 2019, Associated Press

House Democrats have reached a tentative agreement with labor leaders and the White House over a rewrite of the U.S.-Mexico-Canada trade deal that has been a top priority for President Donald Trump.

'I'm hearing very good things, including from unions and others that it's looking good. I hope they put it up to a vote, and if they put it up to a vote, it's going to pass,' Trump said Monday.

'I'm hearing a lot of strides have been made over the last 24 hours, with unions and others.'

The tentative accord was revealed by a Democratic aide not authorized to discuss the talks and granted anonymity because the agreement is not official.

Details still need to be finalized and the U.S. Trade Representative will need to submit the implementing legislation to Congress. No vote has been scheduled.

The new, long-sought trade agreement with Mexico and Canada would give both Trump and his top adversary, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, a major accomplishment despite the turmoil of his likely impeachment.

The new trade pact would replace the 25-year-old North American Free Trade Agreement, which eliminated most tariffs and other trade barriers involving the United States, Mexico and Canada.

Critics, including Trump, labor unions and many Democratic lawmakers, branded NAFTA a job killer for America because it encouraged factories to move south of the border, capitalize on low-wage Mexican workers and ship products back to the U.S. duty free.

She's got to do something that looks like they're working and doing so for the American people after this schiff-show of an impeachment.
