>>11732062 (pb) Pennsylvania GOP Sen. Pat Toomey
was the ONLY GOP Senator to vote AGAINST the USMCA (and by default support that America gutting NAFTA) because NAFTA was so good for PA, amirite?
"en. Pat Toomey (R-Pa.)
Toomey was the sole Republican to vote against the USMCA despite its importance to the president’s agenda and Trump’s reliance on Pennsylvania in the upcoming November election.
A staunch conservative and opponent of Trump’s trade agenda, Toomey argued that provisions meant to boost wages in Mexico and raise the tariff-free threshold for autos would spike prices for American consumers.
“Outside of a few necessary modernizations and modest market access improvements for Pennsylvania's dairy farmers, USMCA is a step backwards and I could not support its passage,” Toomey said in a Thursday statement."
