Iowa Congressman David Young issued the following statement after the announcement of a trade agreement between the United States and Mexico.
"I am hopeful the announcement of an updated trade agreement with the United States and Mexico is a better deal for Iowa agriculture and manufacturing. Mexico is an important trading partner, as is Canada, and I urge the administration to finalize an agreement with Canada soon which benefits the United States. I look forward to analyzing this latest trade agreement and getting feedback from Iowa agriculture and manufacturing to ensure it is a good deal for Iowa consumers and workers. And I'll continue to encourage the administration to pursue bilateral trade agreements with other countries and open markets for Iowa's goods and services."
