Trump must sell House Democrats on his signature trade deal – and convince Senate Republicans to stomach labor-friendly provisions to win the left over.
President Donald Trump's new trade deal with Canada and Mexico faces a treacherous path to approval in a split Congress, so the administration is planning to lean heavily on a grassroots lobbying effort to sell the plan to skeptical voters and lawmakers.
It's been nearly four months since the U.S., Canada and Mexico signed a deal to replace the existing North American Free Trade Agreement. "We need that first of all," said Rep. Bill Pascrell, D-N.J., a member of the House Ways and Means panel's subcommittee on trade."If they don't act, there's definitely no chance of getting the votes."
Jayapal's district – which encompasses the headquarters of pro-trade Amazon – is one that could be in Republican operative Cox's sights, as Trade Works for America expands its outreach to 50 districts in the coming months.
