Washington, D.C.—Today, Congressman Jim Sensenbrenner (WI-05) issued the following statement after negotiators announced they reached a final deal on the United States Mexico-Canada-Agreement (USMCA):

“This is a huge win for America and for Wisconsin. It is a boon for our state’s dairy farmers who will have more access to Canadian markets. After enduring months of needless delay, I am eager to vote for the deal and am grateful to the Trump administration for their tireless work reaching an agreement.”

    What specific changes from NAFTA to the USMCA will benefit Wisconsinites in general, and dairy farmers in particular? NAFTA already had no tariffs for U.S. dairy products sold to Mexico and Canada.

    How is this a big win for America and Wisconsin, over what was in NAFTA?
