Negotiators ‘Making Progress’ Daily on USMCA, but ‘We’re Not There Yet,’ Says Pelosi

House Democrats and the Trump administration are “still at work” on a bill to ratify the U.S.-Mexico-Canada Agreement and are “making progress every day,” Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., told reporters Thursday. “We’re not there yet.” The House “will be able to proceed” on a bill “as soon as we can get the assurances from the administration and from everyone involved that there will be enforceability of some of the provisions” and it will “be an improvement” of the North American Free Trade Agreement, she said. “I’m optimistic.” Back-and-forth proposals between House Democrats and Office of the U.S. Trade Representative are “confidential,” she said. “We feel very good about being on a path to yes,” she said. “While we have some good things in the bill, it’s only a list of good things unless it can be enforced.” USTR didn't comment.
