Only House Speaker Nancy Pelosi can decide whether the pact to replace NAFTA comes up for a vote in the Democratic-controlled House.

President Trump talks to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi as they leave the Capitol following a St. Patrick's Day observance in March.

Some in the White House are arguing to put more pressure on Pelosi from the outside, believing she will not hand Trump a victory on a top political issue unless forced to by moderate Democrats representing closely divided House districts. Trade among the three countries surpassed $1.2 trillion last year, thanks to zero tariffs for almost all goods crossing one another’s borders and deeply integrated supply chains formed since NAFTA took effect in 1994.

Pelosi on Tuesday said at a Politico panel that she was “inclined to see if we can’t improve on” NAFTA but warned that Democrats’ concerns about the enforcement of labor rules for all three countries is key. Lighthizer, a trade negotiator for President Reagan and one-time Senate staffer, is well known on Capitol Hill and considered a pivotal figure in winning Democratic support.

Democrats representing moderate districts — particularly those with manufacturing or agricultural bases — may decide they need to work with Trump, or at least avoid appearing obstructionist. While many newer Democrats won because of Trump’s low popularity, some also promised to rise above partisanship.
