Bill > SJR25

This Joint Resolution expresses support for the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA), a trade pact that modernized the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) and has been in effect since July 1, 2020, benefiting all participating countries by providing a stable framework for trade and investment. The resolution specifically highlights the advantages for the state, including increased trade with Canada, which supplies essential resources like petroleum products, metals, and machinery, and supports numerous jobs. It also emphasizes how free trade with Canada and Mexico makes goods more affordable, expands markets, and boosts economic growth, while also advocating for simplified border crossings for commuters and travelers to foster goodwill between North American nations and supports the federal administration's efforts to improve and modernize the USMCA, urging them to work towards a system of free trade with Canada and Mexico.
