This slowdown created major traffic jams for this city of nearly 1 million people and required special action by their city police to resolve the traffic problem. I am concerned about this logjam for a number of reasons. First. it burdens the generally good relations that exist between our two countries and the trade that we both depend on. Second. time delays in border crossings increase costs for business that depend on commuter crossings between the two cities. Third. I am troubled that the tourist industry. a vital part of the border economy. would be adversely affected by unreasonable time delays at the international bridges.
