NAFTA

The Administration negotiated a strong side agreement to protect the environment and helped pass NAFTA with the support of a large portion of national environmental advocacy groups. The treaty sets a new environmental standard for trade agreements. Innovative "green" provisions will help protect the environment and improve the quality of life on both sides of the border with Mexico. At the same time, NAFTA will double the number of American jobs supported by environmental technology exports to Mexico.
