The vice president also spoke how this will benefit workers in the Jacksonville area.
He was the special guest speaker in a series being held by the nonprofit, America First Policies, at the Schultz Center.
Pence talked about the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement, which the Trump administration negotiated to revamp the North American Free Trade Agreement.
If the "New NAFTA" is in place, it's supposed to help:
- Make jobs more secure
- Create a more playing field for workers, farmers and ranchers
- Strengthen food and agriculture trade here in the U.S.
- Help better regulate digital trade
