Did Pelosi sabotage USMCA?

https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2019/12/mexicans_throwing_a_spanner_in_the_usmca_trade_pact.html

TLDR version - After trade negotiators from the three countries got agreement on the new USMCA, Democrats in the House quietly inserted a new provision - that Mexico unions run by American rules.  In theory, this gives them more power, but in actuality, nobody wants this - not Mexican workers, not Mexican, not the Mexican government, nobody except the Democrats in the House.

WTF - a trade bill agreed and signed by three countries, which everyone likes lands on your desk and you have to "tweak" it to make it "better"?

No wonder Richard Trumka is all in support of USMCA.
