US, Mexico Agree On Labor Dispute Resolution

One of the actions that emerged from sessions last week between the U.S., Mexico and Canada after marking the one-year anniversary of the U.S.-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA) was that the U.S. and Mexico agreed to allow a vote by workers at a GM plant in Mexico on forming a union.

The complaint was brought under new provisions in the USMCA.

There was no resolution to other labor-related issues as of yet and key agriculture trade matters were also left unresolved between the U.S. and Canada over dairy and the U.S. and Mexico over GMO crops and glyphosate.
