Passage of the USMCA will provide economic certainty and ensure manufacturers stay competitive globally.

The Motor & Equipment Manufacturers Association (MEMA) was invited to join President Donald Trump in the historic USMCA bill signing ceremony on January 29th at the White House. Wrapping up U.S. passage of the USMCA will provide economic certainty and will ensure that motor vehicle parts manufacturers in the U.S. stay competitive in the global marketplace.

“It is a great honor to receive the president’s personal invitation to attend the signing ceremony and to represent our members and the entire supplier community,” MEMA President & CEO Bill Long said. “The USMCA is a significant bipartisan accomplishment for our country and has been a major Motor & Equipment Manufacturers Association (MEMA) legislative success for the industry. The USMCA will provide opportunity for manufacturing growth in the United States and throughout the region. This action begins to establish economic certainty, which is essential to preserving and enhancing vital North American supply chains for the U.S. motor vehicle sector.”
