Please join the WITA Academy for a special USMCA Primer “Trade on the Hill” briefing, a cross-over event with WITA’s USMCA Review Series.

Panelists will examine the evolution of the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) into today’s United States–Mexico–Canada Agreement (USMCA), including the key issues in the current agreement up for review and how the current political and economic climate plays into that process. This session will also look at the role Congress in overseeing and shaping U.S. trade policy.

The “Trade on Hill” series is meant to provide current Hill staff with background and practical context on trade policy and the role of Congress in the months ahead.
