How are NAFTA and the USMCA different?

An explanation from from the UA School of Government and Public Policy's Jeff Kucik.

While the future of the U.S.-Mexico-Canada Agreement remains unclear, the U.S. Chamber of Commerce estimates that more than 700,000 workers in Arizona depend on free trade and keeping trade routes open. The deal the USMCA would replace, NAFTA, remains in effect. Jeff Kucik is an expert in trade law at the University of Arizona School of Government and Public Policy. He explained some of the key differences and similarities between the two trade deals.
