USMCA—it’s the right deal at the right time & will bring unbridled economic prosperity to Texas & our entire nation.

Michael McCaul
TX-10

Replacing NAFTA with USMCA will benefit Texas! Texas exports more than any other state, while trade with Mexico and Canada supports 1 million jobs here. Time to update the old agreement to bring even more jobs and higher wages to our state.

Kevin Brady
TX-8

Canada and Mexico are the most critical partners for Texas manufacturers. That’s why we need an updated, modern trade agreement – we need to pass #USMCANow

Van Taylor
TX-3

The USMCA supports workers and farmers, expands access to international markets, and strengthens US partnerships abroad. As a data-driven legislator, I will continue to support this agreement and the thousands of jobs it creates right here in Texas.

Judge Carter
TX-31

Mexico is the first country to ratify the USMCA. Now it's time for Congress to act. This trade deal will usher in $68 billion in economic growth, and it will bolster Texas industries.

John Ratcliffe
TX-4

The Texas economy benefits heavily from our trade partnership with our neighbors in Mexico and Canada, and it’s my hope this continues with the new jobs and economic growth the USMCA will bring to our region and country.

Henry Cuellar
TX-28

"Thank you NAM for having Rep.Kevin Brady and I today to discuss our work in passing the USMCA. It is critical to have this dialogue between the public and private sector in order to pass a trade deal that benefits American workers."

Bill Flores
TX-17

VP Pence is correct - "The USMCA is a great deal, and Congress needs to act now."

Randy Weber
TX-14

The bipartisan #USMCA would improve American businesses by adding to the economy and creating jobs!

Roger Williams
TX-25

We must finalize this deal now, so Texans can feel the benefits sooner versus later. I am ready to vote for USMCA, as are many of my colleagues. Let’s clear the gridlock in Washington and get this done for all Americans.

Greg Abbott
Governor

Our trade partnerships with Mexico & Canada are integral to the extraordinary growth in Texas that is fueling America’s economy. Congress has an opportunity to expand this shared prosperity for more. American farmers, families & manufacturers by passing #USMCAnow.

Drew Darby

Critical for our families in West Texas, and our entire nation! Congress must get this done soon. Thank you to these three for their hard work on behalf of Texas!

Tan Parker

A year has passed since Congress was presented with the opportunity to protect millions of jobs & the livelihood of countless Americans. It’s time for Washington to act and pass the USMCA now!! #USMCANow

Dan Patrick
Lieutenant Governor

The world needs a strong America, & America needs a strong Texas. USMCA reaffirms that the U.S. is the true arbiter of economic strength in North America, and it dramatically rebalances trade deficits that've run rampant under NAFTA. #txlege #USMCAnow”

Sid Miller

Trade with Canada and Mexico supports more than 12 million American jobs in every state in the Union. In fact, 49 U.S. states count Canada or Mexico as one of their top three merchandise export markets #USMCAnow

Betsy Price
Mayor of Fort Worth

More than 950,000 jobs in Texas are supported by trade with Mexico & Canada. That’s why @PlanoMayorHarry & I are joining our fellow mayors throughout the state & nation in calling for the passage of NAFTA 2.0. The ratification of #USMCA is good for #Texas.
