A Christmas Gift for Texas

After more than a year of delay, the House of Representatives passed the United States Mexico Canada Agreement (USMCA).

This new agreement will grow our strong economy and is a win for American workers, farmers, and manufacturers.

USMCA by the numbers:

• Over $68 billion in new economic activity. 
• 176,000 new jobs here in America. 
• $34 billion in new auto plants. 
• 76,000 new American automotive sector jobs. 

Plus, for the first time in any trade agreement, there is a new chapter dedicated to digital trade, supporting digital innovators and allowing for a stronger American economy.

USMCA is a huge win for the Lone Star State, because more than 950,000 good-paying jobs are supported by trade with Mexico and Canada.  We export over $300 billion in goods each year, and over 43 percent of that is with our North American neighbors.

I’m proud to have led efforts to pass this historic trade agreement – and now we’re bringing the success back home to Texas.

Thank you for taking the time to read and if you have a moment, please answer this short survey. And don't forget to forward this to friends and family in our district who would appreciate these updates.

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!
