Huizenga: The USMCA will strengthen Economic Opportunity and Job Creation in Michigan

Today, Congressman Bill Huizenga (MI-02) released the following statement after President Trump officially signed the United States Mexico Canada (USMCA) Trade Agreement:

'Modernizing our trade relationship with Mexico and Canada is vital to Michigan's economy, said Congressman Bill Huizenga. 'Estimates show that 65% of Michigan's exports head to either Mexico or Canada. The USMCA creates new opportunities for farmers and manufacturers across Michigan while supporting economic opportunity and growth here in West Michigan.'

'Many people doubted President Trump's ability to renegotiate NAFTA in a manner that would benefit hardworking Americans,' continued Congressman Huizenga. 'With the signing of the USMCA, the President delivered a bipartisan win for American families, workers, manufacturers, and small business job creators.'

Last month, Congressman Huizenga spoke in support of the USMCA as well as the trade agreement's impact on Michigan. You can watch his remarks below.
