Press Release

Today, Gov. Kim Reynolds released the following statement after the U.S. House of Representatives voted to ratify the U.S. Mexico Trade Agreement (USMCA):

"Today's vote is a strong step forward to ratifying USMCA, strengthening our relationship with Iowa's top two trading partners, Mexico and Canada.

"For over a year, I stood alongside President Trump, Vice President Pence, and key stakeholders in Iowa to call on Congress to ratify USMCA. This is a balanced trade agreement that will benefit families, farmers, manufacturers, and small businesses all across our state.

"I want to thank President Trump, Ambassador Lighthizer, and the entire administration for their work so far. Now, it's critical for the U.S. Senate to move quickly to vote and ratify the agreement."
