An Op-Ed by Rachel Michelin, President and CEO of the California Retailers Association
Retailers are everywhere we look; on the corner of Main Street in tiny towns, big towns, and online. In fact, there are so many retailers across the U.S. that our industry is the largest private-sector employer. With so many people having an interest and need for department stores, convenience stores, supermarkets, grocery stores, vision and auto stores and beyond, it is our hope that Congress will support the more than 418,000 retail establishments across California by passing the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA).
