Ernst: 298 Days Later, House Democrats Still Stalling on the USMCA

Senator Ernst highlighted the stories of two Iowa farmers who are urging Congress to pass the trade agreement with Mexico and Canada

WASHINGTON—U.S. Senator Joni Ernst (R-IA) continues to make Iowans’ voices heard in Washington. Today, she highlighted the stories of two Iowa farmers who are urging Congress to pass the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA)—an agreement signed by President Trump 298 days ago. Ernst, chairman of the Senate Agriculture Subcommittee on Rural Development and Energy, called on Speaker Pelosi and House Democrats to move on the USMCA and give Iowans, and the American people something they’ve long called for.
