Bill > HCRes25

This concurrent resolution expresses Congress's view that the Trump administration's proposed 25-percent tariffs on imports from Canada and Mexico would violate the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA), a trade pact that replaced the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) in 2020. The resolution provides context about the significant economic importance of trade between the United States, Canada, and Mexico, noting that their bilateral trade has resulted in an estimated $762.1 billion and $839.9 billion respectively, and supports over 17 million jobs. The resolution highlights that these tariffs would create economic uncertainty, potentially undermine the USMCA's goals of creating a level playing field and supporting a modern, balanced trade relationship, and goes against President Trump's own earlier characterization of the agreement as "the largest, most significant, modern, and balanced trade agreement in history." Congress specifically affirms its support for the USMCA, recognizes the importance of eliminating trade barriers through effective dispute resolution, and endorses moving forward with the agreement's planned 2026 review process.
