  • 25 Republican senators sent a letter to President Donald Trump asking him to get the US back into the Trans-Pacific Partnership trade agreement.
  • Trump pulled the US out of TPP on the third day of his presidency, but recently said he is open to renegotiating the deal.
  • But recent moves by the Trump administration suggest that the president is favoring more protectionist trade policies.

More than two-dozen Republican senators on Tuesday released a letter they sent to President Donald Trump, requesting the president reengage on talks to join one of the world’s largest trade agreements.

The letter, spearheaded by Sen. Steve Daines of Montana, asked Trump to reconsider his decision to pull the US out of the Trans-Pacific Partnership. The president signed an executive order to begin the process of removing the US from TPP negotiations on January 23, 2017 — just three days after he took office.
