Trump to sign USMCA on Wednesday
USAgNet - 01/28/2020
President Trump is expected to put his signature on a trilateral trade agreement this week.
According to Farms.com, the president will participate in a United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA) signing ceremony on Wednesday at the White House, multiple reports indicate.
“This is a major accomplishment for the president and he will be taking this on the road in the coming weeks,” an administration official told Reuters.
Last week, the Senate voted 89 to 10 in favor of approving the agreement and sending the deal to the president’s desk for signature.
Mexico has already ratified the agreement and Canada is expected to begin the ratification process this week.
As part of the agreement, U.S. wheat will be graded on the same plane as Canadian wheat.
Representatives from wheat-producing states are excited about the opportunities the USMCA provides.
