Senate approves USMCA trade deal in landslide vote
« on: January 16, 2020, 07:46:47 pm »
The GOP-controlled Senate overwhelmingly passed a new trade deal with Mexico and Canada on Thursday, giving President Trump another trade win a day after he inked a partial agreement with China.

The bill to replace the Clinton-era NAFTA pact passed by a 89-10 vote, sending it to the president’s desk for his signature.
Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, meanwhile, voted against the USMCA, saying it does not “address climate change.”

What a schmuck.

Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly, do not claim to be wiser than you are.  Do not repay anyone evil for evil, but take thought for what is noble in the sight of all.  If it is possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all…do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.
