I am in agreement with the 38 lawmakers who have alerted President Trump to a major "policy" issue contained within the U.S.-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA).
 
Their letter, in part, states:
"At the same time your Administration is carrying out a cohesive agenda regarding policies surrounding sexual orientation and gender identity, in the Department of Justice and Health and Human Services specifically, it is deeply troubling that the Office of the U.S. Trade Representative (USTR) has included contradictory language in the U.S.-Mexico-Canada Agreement." The letter goes on to state: "A trade agreement is no place for the adoption of social policy. It is especially inappropriate and insulting to our sovereignty to needlessly submit to social policies which the United States has so far explicitly refused to accept."
 
The lawmakers then warned that including "sex discrimination" in the USMCA could "cause unnecessary confusion in future international treaties as well as domestic laws and policies," in addition to setting a "dangerous precedent for courts and future Administrations to build upon."  These Members of Congress "strongly" urge the President to remove the questionable articles.
 
I am requesting that Congress strip the social policy language out of the USMCA before any other components of the trade agreement are considered. Thank you for taking appropriate action.

On November 30th, President Trump, Mexican President Enrique Peña Nieto and Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau are expected to sign the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA).
 
One recently uncovered major issue is that the proposed USMCA includes a provision elevating "sexual orientation" and "gender identity" to a protected class that is inconsistent with many of our existing laws and precedent. 
 
That provision is also contradictory to the Trump administration's current efforts to "restore the historic definition of 'sex' to a person's anatomical sex at birth." And, it will most certainly hamper the administration's efforts to roll back the Obama-era changes to non-discrimination policies that added "sexual orientation" and "gender identity" language to existing federal laws.
 
Congress has already rejected the concept that our Civil Rights law should include "gender identity." 
 
I am asking that any social policy that overrides our sovereignty be removed from the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement. These provisions are a Trojan Horse that could be used like a wrecking ball against federal and state laws to advance an LGBT agenda on private employers. Thank you for taking appropriate action.
