BTA has significant concerns that removing commercial traffic from the Bridge of the Americas could increase freight costs, shift trucks to tolled bridges, exacerbate congestion at other ports of entry, and disrupt established cross-border supply chains. https://t.co/KY31D4lftu

We've urged USDA to continue close coordination with Mexican authorities to establish a clear, science-based pathway for the safe resumption of live cattle imports. Our letter: https://t.co/R1BQgnaI8V

New polling shows mixed views on Mexico, but strong recognition of the economic value of the bilateral relationship. Cross-border trade remains essential to U.S. growth and North American competitiveness. #USMCA https://t.co/3GCHLPM2dM

A major win for border infrastructure: San Luis I’s new lanes double vehicle capacity, helping reduce wait times and improve trade flow. Smart investments like this strengthen security and North American competitiveness. #BorderTrade #Arizona https://t.co/MJO07vsNF4

Modernized ports of entry are boosting connectivity and supporting regional economies. Smart infrastructure investments matter. #TradeInfrastructure https://t.co/79axiQmeKb

DHS funding uncertainty underscores the need for stability at the border. Ensuring continuity for frontline operations is essential to secure and efficient trade flows. #BorderTrade #TradeInfrastructure https://t.co/AsF3FoqYDc

As USMCA review discussions begin, USTR signals tariffs could remain part of a renewed framework. BTA believes a renewed USMCA must preserve trilateral, tariff-free trade to protect supply chains and regional competitiveness. https://t.co/BZjRLa24VR

[BorderTradeAlliance @borderalliance]

New tariffs under Section 122 begin at 10%, with higher rates possible. The administration also signals expanded use of Sec. 301 and 232 authorities.

BTA supports congressional partnership, transparency, and careful evaluation of tariff impacts.

DHS remains partially shut down as funding talks continue. Some frontline personnel are working without pay, underscoring the need for a bipartisan solution.

Preliminary data suggest U.S.–Canada trade is set for a third straight year of decline, reflecting shifting markets and supply chains — a key trend as we approach the USMCA review. 📉 #BorderTrade #USMCA https://t.co/eMqAZvIIru

$20M in federal funding approved to build a four-lane connector to the new Douglas commercial port — a major step in strengthening freight flow and border infrastructure. 🚛 #BorderTrade #Infrastructure https://t.co/eD5jS0T56E

The ITC has opened a new review of the 17.09% duty on Mexican tomatoes following the end of the 2019 suspension agreement. Trade certainty matters—clear rules support stable supply chains and cross-border investment. #BorderTrade #TradePolicy #USMexico

[BorderTradeAlliance @borderalliance]

Predictable trade rules and stable cross-border relationships are not abstract policy goals—they are essential to economic resilience, jobs, and long-term investment. BTA will continue to emphasize the importance of certainty and cooperation.

Encouraging! Mexico and the United States have agreed to a plan for Mexico to deliver the water it owes to Texas under a 1944 treaty. https://t.co/lVkWXHdwGm

As USMCA review discussions begin, BTA continues to emphasize certainty, competitiveness, and predictable rules for North American supply chains. A strong agreement supports investment and growth across our borders. #USMCA #BorderTrade

BTA-supported legislation to combat organized cargo theft is advancing in Congress, strengthening coordination across jurisdictions and giving law enforcement new tools to protect freight moving across borders. https://t.co/DmWCZ2uLKF
