North American Free Trade Agreement Implementation Act

The North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) Implementation Act is a law passed by the U.S. Congress to officially put NAFTA into effect. NAFTA is a trade deal among the United States, Canada, and Mexico aimed at reducing tariffs and other trade barriers to promote economic growth and cooperation. This act approves the treaty's provisions, ensuring they are legally enforceable in the U.S., and establishes the rules and procedures for implementing and monitoring NAFTA's terms. Essentially, it makes NAFTA's agreements legally binding and part of U.S. law.
