Bipartisan Pair Files House Resolution Warning Against Mexico's Constitutional Reforms

Resolution Expresses Concern Over Energy, Security, and Environmental Impact

Washington, D.C. - A bipartisan pair of lawmakers have introduced a resolution in the House of Representatives expressing concern over Mexico's proposed constitutional reforms, which they say could harm the U.S.-Mexico relationship and negatively impact the environment.

The resolution, H.Res. 1102, was introduced by Rep. Michael McCaul (R-Texas) and Rep. Henry Cuellar (D-Texas). It expresses concern over the potential impact of the reforms on the U.S.-Mexico energy market, the environment, and security.

The reforms, which were proposed by Mexican President Andrés Manuel López Obrador, would give the government more control over the energy sector and roll back environmental regulations.

Concerns Over Energy, Security, and Environment

The resolution expresses concern that the reforms could harm the U.S.-Mexico energy market by giving the government more control over the sector and making it more difficult for private companies to operate.

It also expresses concern that the reforms could harm the environment by rolling back regulations and making it more difficult to protect natural resources.

Finally, the resolution expresses concern that the reforms could harm security by making it more difficult to cooperate with Mexico on law enforcement and border security.

Conclusion

The resolution calls on the Biden administration to work with Mexico to address these concerns and to ensure that the reforms do not harm the U.S.-Mexico relationship.
