While You’re Distracted By Iran, Senate Committee Passed USMCA – Now Set For Full Floor Vote To Give Away American Sovereignty
While Iran is taking center stage in the news, the US Senate Finance Committee voted to advance the trade treaty, not legislation as it’s being touted in the media, known as the US Mexico Canada Agreement by an overwhelming majority to allow for a full vote from the Senate soon.
Fox News reports:
The U.S.-Mexico-Canada Agreement moved closer to a final vote in the Senate, with the Senate Finance Committee advancing the legislation Tuesday in a 25-3 vote.
The timing of a vote in the full Senate is uncertain, however. Majority Leader Mitch McConnell has said a vote will come after an impeachment trial, but House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has not yet sent the two articles of impeachment to the Senate.

USMCA is expected to create around 176,000 new jobs and inject $34 billion into the U.S. auto industry, Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross told FOX Business’ Maria Bartiromo last month, citing International Trade Commission data. He added that as many as 589,000 new jobs could be created within five years.
“This new NAFTA delivers long-overdue upgrades to labor standards, the environment and digital trade, while providing certainty to farmers and manufacturers who have been hammered in recent years,” Sen. Ron Wyden, D-Ore., said.
It requires 75 percent of automobile components be manufactured in the United States, Canada and Mexico in order to avoid tariffs, and that 40 to 45 percent of automobile parts be made by workers who earn at least $16 an hour by 2023.
But at what cost?
American sovereignty and very specific things outlined in our Constitution. This is something no one in the media is talking about.
If you have not taken a look at what is in the USMCA, constitutional scholar Publius Huldah has outlined exactly how this will begin to set up global government in the Northern Hemisphere.
