WASHINGTON _ Jared Kushner will travel to Mexico on Tuesday to finalize talks over a revised North American trade pact after reaching a tentative agreement with Republican and Democratic lawmakers to ratify its passage, two administration officials told McClatchy.
Kushner, son-in-law and senior adviser to President Donald Trump, will travel with U.S. Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer, who has led an effort on Capitol Hill to negotiate a path toward ratification.
Early in his term, Trump pulled out of the North American Free Trade Agreement, or NAFTA, with Canada and Mexico, saying he would pursue a deal more beneficial for American workers.
