After three years of working on a trade deal with the U.K., Sen. Rob Portman says it's time to reach an agreement. He says a trade agreement with the U.K. could lead to one with the E.U. in the future.

(R-Ohio) is in the U.K. this week to work on a trade agreement between the two countries.

Portman is co-chair of the U.K. Trade Caucus, along with (D-Del).

Both have been working on a trade agreement between the U.K. and the U.S. since 2018. Portman says now is the time to get it done.

He says that this agreement with the U.K. could be a stepping stone to enacting other agreements with the E.U.
