Le Mars, Iowa — Republican Congressman Steve King says it’s up to Republicans to reach across the aisle and get more Democrats in the U.S. House to support the United States Mexico Canada Agreement.
Mexico has already ratified the deal and Canada’s government has started the ratification process. King says during a recent meeting with President Trump’s top trade advisor, he got the impression House Speaker Nancy Pelosi supports the USMCA.
King, though he’s a “yes” on the USMCA, suggests keeping the North American Free Trade Agreement in force would be good for Iowa’s economy.
Mexico and Canada are Iowa’s top two trading partners. King made his comments during an interview at the Plymouth County Fair.
