Asked about running against a president who can tout a strong economy, Joe Biden said 'the middle class is behind the eight-ball.' Pete Buttigieg argued that while wages are rising, they aren't keeping pace with higher health-care costs.
Two senators are on opposing sides of the U.S. Mexico Canada Agreement, President Donald Trump's signature trade agreement which was approved by the House Thursday in bipartisan fashion.
Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders said the agreement, known as the USMCA, doesn’t go far enough to stop outsourcing, so he’ll be voting against it. But Minnesota Sen. Amy Klobuchar said she will be voting for the agreement passed by the House, saying it now has better labor and environmental standards in it than the version originally proposed by the president., by a 385 to 41 vote, with 193 Democrats and 192 Republicans backing the pact.
Mexico’s Senate has approved the deal, but it needs ratification in Canada to enter into force and replace the North American Free Trade Agreement, or Nafta. USMCA seeks to update the original 1994 Nafta by accounting for electronic commerce and revising the rules for the auto trade. But the deal’s broad political appeal stems from measures to place limits on the interests of U.S. multinationals, to hold Mexican labor to higher standards, and to make domestic U.S. manufacturing more competitive. USMCA even includes provisions allowing for the free formation of unions in Mexico.
