It also takes good infrastructure to move more than $100 billion in exported goods from Texas to Mexico each year. supporting hundreds of thousands of jobs in Texas alone. It is estimated. when you look at the Nation as a whole. that binational trade between Mexico and the United States supports as many as 6 million American jobs. That is something we frequently overlook when we talk about our relationship with our neighbor south of the border and immigration. and that is there are many benefits to legal trade. traffic. controlled legal immigration. and. indeed. as I mentioned. $100 billion of exported goods from Texas to Mexico each year supporting hundreds of thousands of jobs. In this bill. by allowing Texas and other border States more flexibility in longterm planning of border projects. consumers and workers can benefit as goods are shipped more efficiently back and forth. Our border infrastructure is essential to moving massive amounts of trade. which travel through our ports of entry every day.
