A Guide to Renegotiating NAFTA

Melina Kolb (PIIE) and Cathleen Cimino-Isaacs (PIIE)

The North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) has shaped the economies of the United States, Canada, and Mexico since 1994. President Trump’s plan to renegotiate NAFTA could profoundly affect US firms and workers. The Peterson Institute for International Economics supports a constructive approach to revising NAFTA in a series of papers and two conferences on “A Positive NAFTA Renegotiation" in the summer of 2017. Explore a special graphic feature on the basics of the agreement and proposed strategy for moving forward.
