In my view, a better deal would include modernizing existing trading regimes and negotiating an energy component to NAFTA so North American energy can better compete with Russia, China, and the Middle East. “To me, this would be a ‘winning’ deal – one which benefits Americans workers, creates new jobs here at home, focuses on energy independence, makes our nation competitive in the international marketplace, and all Americans more prosperous in the years to come.” ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
