Looks like we're heading into our own state of dependency.

From https://www.thenewamerican.com/usnews/congress/item/34391-house-of-representatives-passes-usmca-integration-scheme

On Thursday, December 19, 2019, by a vote of 385 Yeas to 41 Nays, the House of Representatives overwhelmingly passed the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement Implementation Act (H.R. 5430) to approve and implement the USMCA regional integration scheme.

…Section 102 of the implementing legislation states: “No provision of the USMCA, nor the application of any such provision to any person or circumstance, which is inconsistent with any law of the United States, shall have effect.” However, the whole purpose of the bill is in fact to change U.S. law in order to be in compliance with the USMCA, once the bill is enacted into law. Section 102 of H.R. 5430 read, in part: “Nothing in this Act shall be construed … to amend or modify any law of the United States, or … to limit any authority conferred under any law of the United States, unless specifically provided for in this Act.”

Regarding State law, Section 102 goes on to state, “No State law, or the application thereof, may be declared invalid as to any person or circumstance on the ground that the provision or application is inconsistent with the USMCA, except in an action brought by the United States for the purpose of declaring such law or application invalid.”

In other words, this empowers the federal government to sue states to overturn their laws that conflict with the USMCA. Turning federalism upside down, this language would virtually transform the federal government into an enforcer against the States on behalf of the regional integration scheme…

Donald Trump is not going to be our President forever nor are the democrats going to go away. There are a number of Democrat office holder quotes in the article that sound convincing enough in that they aren't changing their hatred of our freedom and can't wait to get this scheme into play.

Exactly. The end result of these agreement, EU, USMCA, etc. is handing over sovereignty of the member states and their citizens to the globalists oligarchs that run the bureaucracies. Lets hope that there will still be independent thinking patriots should this new entity try to impose its regulations on Americans.

I always wondered if NAFTA was America/Canada/Mexicos response to the EU. “We can do it too.” I remember people thinking that NAFTA was a stupid idea when it was created.

USMCA is probably end up being NAFTA part II.
