Dear Senator Sinema:

On behalf of the Greater Nogales Santa Cruz County Port Authority, I write to express our

support for the ratification of the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA) and

ask that you work with your colleagues in Congress to move forward with the ratification

of the agreement as soon as possible. More than 228,000 Arizona jobs are dependent on

our trade relationship with Mexico and Canada, a relationship that exceeds $20 billion

combined.

The USMCA meets the needs of the 21st century economy by providing:

● Certainty for future investment in North America, ensuring North America remains

the most desired market and place to invest in the world.

● Stronger Rules of Origin for products manufactured in North America.

● New provisions to protect intellectual property and trade in services.

● New chapters that focus on digital trade and anticorruption.

In recent years, Arizona’s economy has grown exponentially. In large part, this growth is

thanks to the right business environment, modern infrastructure, a talented workforce and

strong working relationships. The USMCA will help Arizona build on this economic

success and ensure that North America remains the most competitive region of the world

where companies want to invest and grow their businesses.

A strong trade deal with Mexico and Canada is crucial for Arizona’s economic future and

will help Arizona lead in our global economy. Please work with your colleagues in

Congress to ratify the USMCA as quickly as possible.

Respectfully,
