U.S. Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer and his staff will head to Michigan ...
DETROIT/WASHINGTON - U.S. Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer and his staff will head to Michigan next week to meet with United Auto Workers union leaders in an effort to win labor backing for a new North American free trade deal, the union said on Friday.
A USTR spokesman did not immediately respond on Friday to Reuters’ queries about the planned meeting. If Congress does not pass USMCA, then the United States has “no credibility at all” with China or “on any deals with your other trading partners,” Lighthizer said at the hearing. And many Republicans, as well as companies and farm groups, say the administration must agree to drop tariffs on aluminum and steel imports from Canada and Mexico before the agreement can move to a vote.
In November, Jones said the trade agreement was “not strong enough,” citing GM’s announcement to end production at five North American plants and cut about 15,000 jobs.
