What guarantee Is there that more corporate operations in Mexico will not serve to degrade the environment even further? To add to the agreements difficulties. Include Mexicos drug and Immigration problems. A freetrade agreement without attention to these two areas would only make it more difficult for American law enforcement to prevent further drug trafficking and illegal Immigration. We already have evidence of how a United StatesMexico freetrade agreement might work. Since 1980. hundreds of United States companies have opened socalled maquiladora factories in Mexico. allowing the production of goods and their export back to the United States with minimal duty charges.
