Illinois Governor Signs Trade Agreement with UK
Illinois Governor JB Pritzker solidified economic ties by signing a trade agreement with the United Kingdom, focusing on climate-conscious manufacturing and equitable economic opportunities. This follows a similar agreement with the State of Mexico, furthering Illinois’ global trade partnerships. The UK agreement aims to boost trade between the two entities, with Illinois exporting over $2.6 billion in goods to the UK in 2024. These initiatives counter the impact of recent U.S. tariffs on foreign imports.
