- The next America First administration has a unique opportunity to revise the approach to trade with Mexico during the 2026 scheduled review of the U.S.-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA), which was negotiated by the Trump Administration in June 2020 as a replacement for the North American Free Trade Agreement Viewing the trade relationship through the lens of how it has improved (or perhaps worsened) national security and migration will be essential in revising it for America First priorities. For instance, if the Sheinbaum administration starts cracking down on cartel violence within Mexico, the U.S. can start to introduce more incentives for businesses to open facilities in Mexico. The U.S. should also consider how the USMCA has affected global strategic interests—for instance, combating the phenomenon of Chinese companies relocating to Mexico to use trade benefits as a backdoor into the U.S. market.
