That the House of Representatives— (1) raises concern that the constitutional reforms and secondary legislation would have a long-term negative impact on Mexico’s democratic institutions, separation of powers, judicial independence and transparency, and security, while undermining its electoral system, National Guard, and independent oversight agencies; (2) expresses deep concern that the constitutional reforms and secondary legislation may contradict commitments made in the United States-Mexico-Canada Trade Agreement, jeopardizing critical economic and security interests shared by the United States and Mexico and weakening North American economic integration; (3) underscores that several aspects of the reform package undermine United States-Mexico joint efforts to strengthen the rule of law, counter organized crime, and address the scourge of fentanyl and human and arms trafficking among broader bilateral priorities; and (4) reaffirms its commitment to a robust, mutually respectful relationship between the sovereign countries of the United States and Mexico.
