“The private freight railroad industry congratulates leaders from Canada, Mexico and the United States for signing the U.S.-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA) today, an important step in preserving free trade across North America. The seamless movement of goods between our nations – via private railroads, as well as trucks – makes our economies stronger and more competitive.
