Lighthizer on NAFTA

  • Sunset clause will shift to a review process every six years that will not cause trade pact to expire

  • NAFTA will have 16 year life span, to be extended for another 16 years after completion of each 6-year review

  • Mexico agrees to eliminate Chapter 19 dispute resolution settlement

  • Hopes Canada will sign on this week

  • Section 232 steel and aluminum tariffs on Mexico aren't lifted

  • Plan will not cap imports of light vehicles from Mexico

Lighthizer is still calling it NAFTA, guess he didn't get the memo.
