This bill directs the U.S. Trade Representative to take action against Mexico for allegedly favoring its state-owned energy companies—the Federal Electricity Commission and Petroleos Mexicanos—in violation of the U.S.-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA). The legislation requires the Trade Representative to either request a formal dispute resolution panel under the USMCA or demand that Mexico provide fair market access to American energy companies during the trade agreement's first joint review. The bill specifically targets Mexican government actions that have disadvantaged U.S. companies and energy exports to Mexico. Within 90 days of enactment, the Trade Representative must report to Congress on what steps have been taken to enforce compliance with USMCA obligations regarding market access, investment protection, and state-owned enterprise rules. The bill has no specified funding amount or implementation timeline beyond the required 90-day reporting deadline.
