how did nafta work in terms of disputes? what were the processes in general, and were they effective? i think some people would say they were pretty effective. i think the reason we are doing usmca is because we have seen problems arise over the last 25 years in terms of the outsourcing of so many jobs to mexico, where wages were so low. and that's why there were key provisions in this new version in which at least 40% to 45% of the work must be with wages of $16 or more and that there have to be more of the contents being , 75% of the content of an automobile, for instance, being made in north america. so i think we've seen that nafta was not perfect. certainly there was still discrimination against the agricultural industry. unfair subsidies. for instance, to fishing industries and things like that. and american workers and american companies have had to abide by for instance child labor standards, environmental provisions, and health and safety rules, and it's unfair when workers and companies in other countries don't hav

the new nafta. american workers are not going to stand for it. that is where the real problem began. >> let's go back to before we had all of the big trade deals when trade was maybe 20% of gdp. now it is more than 60%. trade promised a lot of things. it promised great gdp growth. we got that. it promised great share price profitability. we got that. it promised increases in wages. that we didn't get. >> not even close. >> but the money is there. trade made us all richer. isn't the problem how we dealt with the riches? should we be against trade or should we be saying, hey. our state and federal government should be taking the enhanced riches that trade has given us and retraining and helping people move and helping people get into the jobs they want. isn't being against trade sort of the wrong idea? >> i'm not against trade. i don't think any progressive should be against trade. we want fair trade. i always say there is plenty of money in this world, plenty of money in this country. it is just in t

just like the original nafta, the new nafta is half-baked, repackaged, and broken. it was not written to improve the lives of our working families in ohio or in mexico or in central america. it was written to advance transnational corporate interests and the schemes of very wealthy elitings. in a country whose public aprivate sectors too often serve the interest of the rich and powerful and not the average person, this is the last thing the working people of ohio and north america need. regardless of whether they work in the mills or toil in the fields. the president's promise of higher wages and returning jobs is not to be believed. nafta cannot deliver for the working people unless it ensures the dignity of labor, of labor rights, and labor enforcement on this continent. our leaders must wake up to the human suffering these trade deals create, not only for our own citizens, as their jobs are outsourced, but also people who are exploited in mexico and the americas. when transnational corporations crash together, the economies of first and third world countries with

i happen to agree with what you said about nafta. nafta was good for the economy. nafta was good for so many people. but i think you're underplaying the political significance of nafta. it over the long period was a devastating thing for many other people, and i think that president trump was elected in part because of that. that's why i made the point he hasn't really done anything here. he just tweaked what existed -- david: hold on. i got to push back a little bit because you guys are burying the lead. the lead is jobs. i mean, the jobs numbers of this president are extraordinary, and they're extraordinary for several reasons. one, we had the tax cuts in which, yes, corporations got a very sweet deal, but they used a lot of that money. they did buy back stocks but they also hired a lot of people. and we have 500,000 new manufacturing jobs. that ain't for nothing he was in wisconsin, a lockheed martin plant, is because manufacturing jobs some of which we were told by the last president would never come back, did come back, as a result of what he did. he brought c

nafta. one of the world's worst trade deals ever. i know a couple of others we have been involved in them too. world trade organization, that's a beauty. you don't know as much about that. but nafta was a disaster for this country and we'll be replacing that very soon, hopefully with the usmca and that's going to be something really, really special. it's going to keep jobs, one of the things they said to start off, i don't want people leaving this country. meaning, companies. i don't want to incentivize companies to leave, fire their people, build products, sell the products over in our country, no tax whatsoever. so we end up with no jobs, no factory, no taxes, no nothing. not going to happen anymore. can't happen under our new agreement. [applause] and i've been talking about this subject for 20 years. it's possibly one of the reason i ran. i used to look at michigan where they'd lose their car companies one after another. you lost so many companies in wisconsin. everybody lost. everybody lost companies. they were losing companies

some of the inequities of nafta. and especially the fact that mexico can continue to pay very much laborr not have unions being formed in mexico and that really put a disadvantage, put american companies and american automobile workers at a competitive disadvantage. and then of course companies would then outsource parts manufacturing or major automobile manufacturing to mexico. that hurt our american workers and that's why people realize that we need to have tougher provisions in nafta to really level the playing field. of course our economy has changed. whoever thought of digital games, music, software. a lot of these things are now being addressed in the usmca or nafta 2.0. small businesses will benefit under this agreement because the minimum amount of products sent over by a particular company will be higher before those products are subject to just normal customs duties. so that will really help small businesses be able to sell more, ship more at a higher value before they are subject to customs and duties. tha

it's been a very good instrument that was established with the previous nafta. now we have the challenge as representative, as congressmen cuellar said to continue to rely on nafta for replenishment of its capital and to have it, we need to work together in the issue of environment on usmca to address which are the top priorities of environment and then link those priorities with loans and investment that nedbank can do in infrastructure and addressing environmental concerns. and so we will be able to say, see, we are enforcing our common challenges on environment. we need to use natbank and the international boundary and water commissions. we have the tools. we have the institutions. we just have to use them. and we have to educate, of course, congress to tell them, you don't need to worry about. you have the tools for the enforcement. we just to work together on identifying priorities and allocate them -- the resources that are needed. furthermore, in 2018, we also signed a series of memoranda of understanding to increase agriculture safeguarding and to combat

i support the new nafta. i believe we need to understand that the united states of america is less than 5% of global population appeared when children being born today are my age, it will be less than 3%. we have to understand the globalization peace and make these transitions that will enable us to be successful. about china, everybody talking about the manufacturing jobs which have been moved to china. guess what? labor costs in vietnam are almost half of what they are in china. if you shut down in china and the labor movement vietnam, a tougher competitive position and i am not saying we do not need to be tough on china, we need to , but we need to understand the law of unintended consequences and figure out how we will win and a much more sophisticated way. the president's trade policies have misunderstood the supply chain evaluations that need to be made to understand how manufacturing happens in this allocations basic of resources happen in this country. says, yes,lan that we have to be global because w

because of it's geographical location, before nafta was very important crossing point for trade, nafta just blew up everything exponentially. we also have customs trade and logistics community that are very, very proactive. back in the '80s, before a lot of the things we take for granted now in technology, mexican custom brokers, who just returned after studying at m.i.t., a couple of them, started working on ways of using computers to facilitate transmission of data. we're talking about floppy disks. then they went over with the mexican set, mexican customs and they developed this system where everything was starting to go through computers. even though at the beginning, it was once a week when they took the disc to the bridge and then just downloaded everything, then it was everyday and eventually they got to develop it as a pilot project for all of mexico. that with the fact a quarter of all mexican customs brokers have -- [ speaking spanish ] another quarter the rest of the ports of entry of mexico also have offices there. that's something we can talk about later, the economic impa

i think enforcement has always been the problem with nafta and most of our trade deals. it is not so much the mechanism as how the united states uses that mechanism. many times because we are the ones who like the free market, we can not to enforce as much as other countries or impose enforcement mechanisms. i think that is legitimate concern. to the degree we can help them with that, i would like to be able to do that. i share some of the concern over how the pharmaceutical issue was treated in the u.s. and yet. if there's some way we can be more in sync with canada and mexico rather than forcing them to be more in sync with us with regard to protections for the pharmaceutical side, i think that would be a major breakthrough. few republicans encourage that, maybe that would be the type of breakthrough we need. that theee you democrats and their constituents are better off than fully ratified usmca as it has then not do it. we have to help them understand the reality of the situation is we gave the administration this authority through tpa, that means we get a straight u

i was here when we passed nafta, as was the speaker. there were a number of promises made, as the gentleman knows from his knowing the experience of nafta. a number of promises were made that weren't kept. we're very focused, as the gentleman knows, on workers' rights, environmental protections, the price of bilogics and the length of time -- biologics and the length of time they would be protected in generic competition and bringing prices down. we met with the prime minister of canada, mr. trudeau, and many of his cabinet, we are very concerned about enforcement. we want to say, if we make this agreement that it will in fact be enforced. as you know, there were meetings as late as yesterday on this issue. the good news is, as the gentleman probably knows, ambassador lighthizer has great respect and confidence on both sides of the aisle. i would say he's one of those people who both sides of the aisle believe is credible, knowledgeable, straightforward, and an honest broker. so we're working very hard with him. almost every democrat ha

nafta just blew up everything exponentially. we also have customs and trade logistics community very very proactive. back in the '80s, before, a lot of things we take for granted and technology, mexican custom brokers who just returned after studying at mit, a couple of them, started on ways to use viewers of facilitating transmission. we're talking about floppy disks. then, they went with the mexican customs. they developed this system where everything was starting to go through computers. even though they -- at the beginning, it was once a week, they took the disc to the bridge and downloaded everything, then, it was everyday and eventually they got to develop it as a pilot project for all of mexico. that, with the fact that a quarter of all mexicans [speaking non-english] and another quarter of those who have theirs and the rest of the ports of entry of mexico also have offices there. that's something we can talk about later, the economic impact of that. the thing is because of these individuals who live and parents and grand

texas democratic congressman lloyd doggett says the new trade deal that replaces nafta will end up costing us at the drugstore it will limit the power of congress to do something about prescription price dog. it says one provision in the deal protects big drug companies against cheaper generic versions of their drugs it's all about limiting competition and protecting monopoly right. >>and that's what causes these prices to go up so much doggett and dozens of democrats wrote this letter to us trade representative robert lighthizer last week they say if the provision stays in the u s m c a bill vote to kill the deal that puts the president in a pickle, either get rid of that provision and risk having to renegotiate the deal. >>or keep it and risk it not passing in congress and the sooner the better texas republican senator john cornyn says there's not a lot of time left to get democrats on board because once. >>it's comes from the white house and it's on a 90 day. a fast track and that can't be amended by congress. >>this is not the only issue democrats have with the u s m c a house speaker

are so scared to stand up and be progressive and be strong, that they can't say out of hand, no nafta, no way, people in this country and working people are going to look at that and middle class people will look at that and say i can't tell one party from the other and they're not going to buy into a democratic party that seems to be once again just caving to the big corporations rather than standing up for working people. so on a whole host of issues, i think it is a time of reckoning for the democratic party and that is what this primary should be about and the debates. the heart and soul of the democratic party, are we really here for working people or ready to stand up for a different kind of society or are democrats just republicans light. that is the discussion we have to have. if we're republicans light, donald trump will get re-elected and i will not stand for that. >> mayor bill de blasio, appreciate it and good luck to your citizens in new york city. >> thank you. >>> i.c.e. officers are set to begin raids on migrant families this morning. i'll talk to a top substantial off

it's still nafta. it's even worse in some ways. if democrats are so scared to stand up and be progressive and be strong that they can't say out of hand no nafta, no way, a lot of people in this country, a lot of working people are going to look at that. a lot of middle class people are going to look at that and say i can't tell one party from the other. they aren't going to buy into a democratic party that seems to be once again caving to the big corporations rather than standing up for working people. on a whole host of issues, i think it's a time of reckoning for the democratic party. that's what the primary should be about and debates. heart and soul of the democratic party. are we really here for people, stand up to a different society or are democrats just republicans light. that's the discussions we have to have. if we're republicans light, donald trump will get re-elected. i for one will not stand for that. >> mayor de blasio, thank you for your time and good luck with the citizens in new york city. >> thanks, jake. >>> i.c.

connell: okay. >> incremental improvement to nafta. if you really hated nafta, this probably doesn't do everything in the world to delight but if someone okay with nafta to begin with, you're okay with this i think hear the visibility on it is good enough, this is not the biggest concern for markets right now. connell: right that might be something else related to trade, carol, being china where it doesn't seem like we're making as much progress but are you with jack, they pass this thing? they have done it in mexico. canada waiting for us, right? if they don't pass it we're back to the drawing board with issues. >> there is absolutely no reason not to pass it, even if you don't agree it is the best deal since sliced bread. it is a marginal improvement over what we had. no reason not to pass it other than political reasons. i'm not sure congress gets this done before they go on vacation at the end of the july but perhaps it rearses its head in september. i think one of those things nancy pelosi could be holding in her back pocket to ke

you are right we've got to do more of nafta we have to have a super nafta stops all this. maria: exactly right. >> put that up keep jobs here in america. >> don't forget nancy pelosi is not bringing it to the floor if you don't get usmca ratified, you are going to have nafta that will be -- unless like the president told me a couple months ago, when i interviewed him he came on show as ied we will do pre-nafta won't do nafta so bad we will do pre-nafta a lot of debate about that impacting the economy mitch mcconnell has broken with president on this said no we have to do nafta what i am saying if you don't get usmca ratified you are stuck with nafta how do you feel about that. >> i think we've got to make sure it is right, make sure it is enforceable but we've got to pass it this year i think it is important, i think nancy pelosi going to keep working on this, with lighthizer who is trade ambassador, i think there is hope here, it is a big improvement to stop this hemorrhaging of american jobs we've got to do it now, anybody that wants to be doing it should be talking on d

let's go back to nafta. look at this silent effort to pass nafta when no one is looking. i am very blunt that some things are both the faults of democrats and republicans. democrats in the past decades made some of the same mistakes in terms of under cutting working class people. if we are having an honest fight, if we become the party of working people, we are unbeatable. if people say what is the difference between those parties, donald trump wins. >> all right, mayor bill de blasio. thank you for being on the show this morning. >> thank you. >> still ahead, more than three dozen democratic senators have come out in support of legislations that would improve living situations at border facilities. we'll talk to the senator when we return. now that's eatin' good in the neighborhood. right now, congress is working to end surprise medical billing. that's when patients are hit with medical bills they thought would be covered by insurance. but what congress is considering would cut money that vulnerabe patients rely on the most. that means seniors, children, and americans re

you have 70% of people that think nafta has been an unmitigated failure. this is an opportunity for us to correct a bad trade agreement and actually make it work for working people. we are going to give it our best, given everything we have to see if we can get an agreement that actually works for the economy, works for workers. if we can, then in fact, we will support it fully. if we cannot, we will oppose it. marty: i want to give it to the 2020 race. there has been this whole notion from the trump white house that the economy has never been better, historic, certainly the stock market set records. are your workers feeling in terms of how this economy is treating them? richard: they are really insecure. many of them have not had a raise for a long time, their health care is under attack, tensions are under attack, their children are facing a mountain of debt coming out of college. they don't see any change coming in the future. they believe the rules of the global economy have been written for them to lose, and they've been losing. they want to change th

there is value in having a nafta 2.0 or the u.s.-mexico-canada agreement. there are efforts to make changes. the speaker has established four taskforces. one focused on labor, one on environmental standards, one on pharmaceuticals and one on enforcement. the new democrats sent a letter to the administration saying work with those taskforces. address those outstanding issues. don't send legislation until those issues are resolved. we will not support it. >> i know that other folks in -- scott: one final question that i'm curious about. what is next for you. i know that other folks in washington state have mentioned you as a possible candidate. for higher office. perhaps the governor in 2022. maybe if an opening open suppan united states senate, or do you see the possible path in the house leadership? do you have plans about what is next after the coalition? rep. kilmer: it was not part of my ambition to come here. i worked in economic development into,, washington and went to bed evident trying to figure out how to create more economic opportunities for folk

or go pre-nafta? >> well, i know in wyoming talking to the farmers and the ag folks there, they want to stay with nafta, they prefer usmca, if not, they want to maintain nafta. maria: let me ask you about the debates tonight, senator kamala harris unveiled her healthcare plan ahead of the second democratic debate tonight in detroit. she's going to be on tomorrow night. but the plan focuses on medicare for all but it is also including private insurers. can you do that? remember, first she raised her hand and said yeah, i'm endorsing medicare for awful when she figured out that it actually does away with 180 million people's private insurance, she backtracked and said maybe we can do both. can you? >> well, you really can't. what she has co-upo co-sponsoree senate, along with all of the -- if not most of the democrats running for president, is the so-called medicare for all, a one size fits all healthcare plan. you will tell all your viewers, under any of these plans that they democrats are proposing yo

president trump has threatened to withdraw from nafta that would roil the north american market. and free trade is relieved this is a replacement and they see it as something they need to get done in order to stop the possibility of president trump getting incredibly frustrated and terminating nafta. >> so you -- i'm sure you have reached out to speaker pelosi's office and i'm curious to get your thoughts about what she's saying about your reporting since this was attributed more so to steven mnuchin's side of the story. >> this is the really interesting twist in our reporting and we have this in the story. she unequivocally denies making this verbal promise to mnuchin. so it's an interesting thing where steven mnuchin we know because, you know, again, i reported it out and the treasury does not deny my reporting. we know he's been telling colleagues that she made that verbal promise. she says she hasn't. obviously there are different politics here at play. she doesn't -- look, i wasn't in the room or on the phone with the two of them and maybe there's -- >> i'm surprised, jonath

just over a week later, nafta passed both the house and senate. it took effect on january 1st, 1994. ross perot was born in 1930 in texas where his father ran a cotton hill. he graduated from the navel academy in 1953 and spent four years at sea. he started electronic data systems in the early 1960s. it later became one of the world's largest technology services companies, processing data. perot became a billionaire in 1984 when he sold a controlling interest to general motors for $2.5 billion. a couple of years later, he started a second data processing company, perot systems corporation. it sold to dell in 2009 for almost $4 billion. in 1969, president richard nixon asked perot to seek better treatment for u.s. prisoners of war in north vietnam. he traveled where he met with ambassadors from russia and north vietnam. perot made headlines again in 1979 when two eds employees were taken hostage during the revolution in iran, he organized and paid for a successful private mission to rescue the men and bring them home. perot ran for president again

i was here when we passed nafta, as was the speaker. there were a number of promises made, as the gentleman knows from his knowing the experience of nafta. a number of promises were made that weren't kept. we're very focused, as the gentleman knows, on workers' rights, environmental protections, the price of bilogics and the length of time -- biologics and the length of time they would be protected in generic competition and bringing prices down. we met with the prime minister of canada, mr. trudeau, and many of his cabinet, we are very concerned about enforcement. we want to say, if we make this agreement that it will in fact be enforced. as you know, there were meetings as late as yesterday on this issue. the good news is, as the gentleman probably knows, ambassador lighthizer has great respect and confidence on both sides of the aisle. i would say he's one of those people who both sides of the aisle believe is credible, knowledgeable, straightforward, and an honest broker. so we're working very hard with him. almost every democrat ha

, not the old nafta, saying that the seasonal fruit, vegetables were unprotected. there's a study from the university of georgia saying the fruit sector, there could be huge costs to the georgia small fruit and farmers and it could potentially reach the tune of $900 million and more than 8,000 jobs lost. that's a big number for a certain area of the country. what are you hearing about the usmca? >> well, in general, farmers just need free trade. all of these tariffs, negotiations going back and forth, they affect every crop differently. when you talk about farmers in a region like georgia, for example, they will be very affected by what happens around these nafta negotiations, so it doesn't surprise me that this may be the impact depending on how the final negotiations go. kristina: i want to just continue on since we were talking about fruit and let's shift over to one that's maybe not getting as much attention. that's the tariffs that are possibly coming from india. this is the latest news, they're imposing new tariffs on 28 u.s. exports affecting apples, i was l

and i'll tell you again, look at nafta. in the midwest, it's an article of faith that nafta hurt communities, took away livelihoods from working people. joe biden was part of that. how are we going to send up a nominee who is going to have to defend that record when it's not defensible. and my concern is not about the personalities. my concern is that we not repeat 2016. that we not have a democratic party that people believe is on the sides of the teletes. we better have that argument now. i want it to be later on donald trump on a debate stage with any democratic can say you were part of all those problems and the democrats are deer in the headlines. we need to have that conversation now. we need to go in a pro worker aggressive direction where working people will know we're on their side. >> the battle lines are drawn. mr. mayor, thank you. >>> i want to add a quick note about the 9/11 victim compensation bill and what it does not include. including to the experts we've talked to, the bill does not appear to include comp

mitch mcconnell just said we can't do away with nafta right now, that'll hit the economy. >> well, i think what the majority leader's talking about and i think what we all are is it's time for congress to do its job. it's time for the house of representatives and the senate to do its job. i've been part of big bills in the past that were both bipartisan and actually got signed under president obama and president trump. what he's saying is let's do our job, do it the way it's supposed to be done, and he's really telling the speaker of the house instead the of worrying about all the things that you think are grand to field a socialist base, let's work on things that actually make a real difference in americans' lives. if you do that, that is why i say they have failed in their mission because we're not seeing the things that actually will help people. mitch mcconnell said we'll pass it. madam speaker, where are you? why have we we not put this on e floor? manufacture more all right. thanks very much, congressman. great to see you this morning. congressman doug collins. president trump'

very big division in the caucus on nafta, very big division on nafta. then the war in iraq, differences of opinion. as you know, i was -- you may not know, ranking member, it was adam schiff at the time, he was chairman i was the top democrat, we didn't have the majority. i said the intelligence did not support the threat. they said you're calling the president a liar. i said i'm not calling him a liar, i'm state ailing fact, the intelligence does not support the threat that this administration is using as a justification for war. people said to me then and i had been in congress over ten years by then, you're never going to anyplace in this party unless you vote for this war. well i didn't vote for it and the majority of our democrats didn't vote for it and senator -- senator graham didn't vote for it who was the democrat in the senate leader on the intelligence committee. and the house, i remember, by and large voted against the war and the senate voted for it. that list goes on and on. there was a big division there. there's some personality issues a

was also the first to call it a question, consensus views not only on debt but even when it came to nafta, and what do you think of that part of his legacy? >> i think there are lots of parts of his legacy and that's one of the important ones that we should be looking to. basing trade policies on strength and not on favors. nafta was all about building an extrajudicial system to go to protect investors against government takeover of their properties down there. it wasn't about fair trade but it was managed trade with multiple volumes of books. ross was able to take a lot of these complicated issues and explained them to people. he went on into health care and that went on over the life of his political activity. >> neil: do you think you would have gone all the way? >> in reality neil, the exit polling that was paid for by the news media on election day when people reported that they voted for clinton or bush, they were asked to follow a question. if you thought ross perot could win, would you have voted for him? this is after you get out and get back in, on the analysis of the question i
