Chairman Neal leads delegation to Canada

Statement

Ways and Means Committee Chairman Richard E. Neal (D-MA) is leading a Congressional Delegation to Ottawa, Canada. While in Canada on Wednesday, members will meet with Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and Minister of Foreign Affairs Chrystia Freeland. Chairman Neal intends to raise issues related to how the United States, Canada, and Mexico can work together to ensure that a truly improved NAFTA will serve the interests of North American workers, our shared environment, the health of our people, and the competitiveness of our economies. The trip comes shortly after Chairman Neal had similar discussions with President Andrés Manuel López Obrador in Mexico City in October, and as the House Democratic Working Group on NAFTA 2.0 continues to engage in productive discussions with the U.S. Trade Representative regarding the inclusion of Democrats' priorities in the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement.
