(CNN)House Democrats look increasingly likely to approve President Donald Trump's revised North American Free Trade Agreement before the end of the year, even as Capitol Hill is consumed with contentious impeachment proceedings. "We're in a good place," House Speaker Nancy Pelosi told reporters of the rebranded US-Mexico-Canada Agreement on Thursday. "I'd like to see us get it done this year. That would be my goal. I don't imagine that it would take much more in the Senate to pass." A nine-member working group of Democrats has been quietly negotiating with Trump's top trade official, Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer, to make changes to strengthen enforcement, ramp up environmental and labor provisions and fix an issue related to pharmaceuticals in the trade deal for months.
