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.

Chuck the Schmuck.  I like it!   :beer:
I Believe in the United States of America as a Government of the people, by the people, for the people; whose just powers are derived from the consent of the governed; a democracy in a republic; a sovereign nation of many sovereign states; a perfect union one and inseparable; established upon those principles of freedom, equality, justice and humanity for which American patriots sacrificed their lives and fortunes.  I therefore believe it is my duty to my country to love it; to support its Constitution; to obey its laws to respect its flag; and to defend it against all enemies.
