remember, donald trump wanted to redraft nafta, an agreement that was working well in canada. criticism came from american politicians simply because it never translated into action from the george h w bush, bill clinton election all the way through the election of 2016. we have at least one candidate, ross perot and then ralph nader, and then later even some democrats like president obama and hillary clinton, and by 2016, both hillary clinton and donald trump were critics of nafta, calling for its we negotiation or elimination. when donald trump came into office and made clear he intended to actually renegotiate or scrap nafta, it was very unsettling for canadians. in the end, we came up with an agreement, the usmca, and i think it is a good agreement, and i am glad we continue to have market access for canadians, but it was very unsettling. one thing about canadians is they often have lower risk appetite, as they stay in the stock, than average americans do. . that is what i meant. . in the end. , it was a tumultuous period. it was donald trump who, on his way to his next bi

this all started with nafta. i was born in 1960 and it seems to me like things were going along great and then we had nafta that took so many jobs. a lot of the cities, we need to eliminate a lot of things right now. we need to eliminate citizens united, we need to get term limits online, put caps on campaign funds. and no lobbying. if any of us tried that, it's like legal lot -- legal bribery. these people can also invest in stock prices and stuff. i don't think that should be legal either. host: this is from a headline from politico this morning. no backup plan for democrats reject deb -- debt limit offramp. they say democrats are running out of time to prepare unpalatable debt limit contingency plan is republicans keep stonewalling in the nation years a devastating default. gop leaders insisted democrats lift the cap on government borrowing without republican votes by using the same budgetary move that's helping them take up a spending plan as soon as this week. that could put the whole package, which is alrea

trade representative to take a treaty that performed the old nafta treaty, and on a bipartisan basis we were able to do something that was much better. i would say the democratic priorities prevailed, but it was done on a bipartisan basis. there was a vote last night on the national defense authorization that was bipartisan. i do a lot of work with animal welfare, which is not a partisan issue. unfortunately, the stuff that gets the headlines is partisan. there are some bright red lines tossed down particularly by the senate minority leader, mitch mcconnell, on things that are just breathtaking to me in terms of a willingness to play russian roulette with the american economy and the debt ceiling. there are opportunities to work together. i believe we are likely to get some of the bipartisan infrastructure. at the end of the day, the work we are doing now on ways and means, senate finance, the commerce committee deals with priorities that are supported by the american public. i think there is a path forward that we will be able to get this done. i hope there is republican support, bu

the us, canada and mexico — set up after former us president donald trump tore up its predecessor, naftang street has shot down the rumours. a spokesperson telling the bbc its not an approach we re currently taking. so what other options could the uk take to increase its trade with the us? heres the uk's former international trade secretary dr liam fox on that. as trade secretary i was very keen that we looked at service agreements with d4 big estates, with california, texas and florida and new york making up about half of us gdp. many of those states don't want the federal government to have the _ authority and that negotiation. so you really need a twin track approach. that could be really quite trailblazing. then you got the alternative altogether of the united states rejoining the transpacific partnership which of course president obama and president biden as vice president oversaw. that would actually be another route to improving uk, us trade. with any deal or the us one—off but about and he deals a post—brexit uk was able to make other major trade powers? was able to make other ma

i know that nafta and others are priorities for you and your organization. ms. wallace: a priority that we hope to see move forward both for the resilience of the navigation system, but also for the ecosystem. like i think what was said earlier, we want to act now so we are prepared and resilient going forward into the future. delayed action is really problematic. our understanding and the delay is a decision with the office of management and budget and not putting it in the budget. we understand that the last administration had agreed of the department of agricultural level and ultimately, it was within omb, so we are hopeful to get the funding for moving forward. again, that was an agreement reached by stakeholders, by all of the state and federal agencies, and navigation and conservation interests, this is our way forward, it was really insightful and would answer a lot of our challenges ecologically to the resilience. rep. graves: thank you. i apologize, i have questions for the other mayors, but i am out of time. chair castor: great. i will recognize myself

trillion dollars comes to averaging eight nafta dollars per family. there are 24,000 dollars taken out of a families purchasing power. don't think for a moment that we are talking about someone else's family. every dollar that gets to you is first being taken from you, and it can only happen in three ways. through current taxes which rob you of your purchasing power, borrowing, which robs you of your future, or printing money, which cause inflation while we silently hold out your savings and retirement fund. then there is the lie that these will fall on businesses. businesses will start paying business taxes. they only pass it along to you as a consumer with higher prices. it is for employees with lower wages, and it is to you as an investor with our money. that is your 401(k). you know that they are coming after working families by hiring 87,000 -- 87,000 new irs agents. that is the entire population of miami beach, florida. the entire population of that city spending after every taxpayer in america. get this. the democrats call it an americans famil

lbj passed antipoverty programs, bill clinton passed nafta, obama passed affordable care act provinge of legislation. we can do this but may violate some of the principles we've tried to build on but we need to do it. >> look, obviously i spent my time with the republican party. i voted straight party line democratic since 2016 and all i expect is y'all keep winning. all i see is president capable of blocking out the noise. what he did on covid relief was transformational. but in the senate i see paralysis and obsession with process. this texas ban happened with obsession with policies. democrats are wrapped around the axle of process and i wonder how you switch that. >> it is a problem because on the one hand we are -- i go back to earlier point in talking about fairness, we think about process. but at the same time i look at -- what's happened in texas, attempt to roll back voting rights in this country, already happened, and in post obama environment lot of folks were saying we don't have the infrastructure on the ground even to make sure these changes that are positive for us sta

when we stood up, and i was pleased when we did the negotiations on nafta 2.0, we rejected the notionthat we had to go along with big pharma. this was a provision that was not required in the canadian law or mexican law. they didn't want it. but it was a way that some would try and preserve that privilege position that is given to the pharmaceutical industries. and i think it is worthy of people to go back and look at the history of these projections. because they are -- they have spun out of control in a way that we did not need. we have all noted the person who helped invent insulin gave that interest in that to the public. i think there are opportunities for us to be able to move forward, to have a modicum of competition. competition that is usually accepted by my republican friends, in terms that we don't have the largest purchaser of prescription drugs in the world, medicare, prohibited from striking a better deal for the american public. i don't think that is going to be anything that is doomed in terms of innovation. it is not going to be pernicious. private sector negotiates,

when the trump administration's new nafta was weak on enforcement, jayme and ambassador ty worked to make huge improvements. and we all worked together in our committee. there are many of us and certainly our colleague senator brown of ohio who has championed this for so many years, this effort, this bipartisan effort to strengthen enforcement made sure that usmca raise the bar over any other trade agreement in history in terms of enforceable commitments on labor rights and the environment. he's been a champ of transparency and accountability and i can tell you, madam president, when i came into public life, people hardly knew anything about trade agreements that were getting ready to be voted on. you'd go home for a meeting and people would ask you about some trade proposal, and you'd be kind of in the dark. jayme wanted to make sure that the days when well connected reporters and insiders in the industry knew more than members of congress and the public about what was being negotiated, jayme said we're going to change that. and we did. there are now concrete rules giving members ac
