USMCA Crisis Threatens Texas Jobs | Texas News
Description
Texas is bracing for economic fallout as the U.S. threatens to scrap the USMCA, pitting the state’s top trading partners—Mexico and Canada—against escalating tariffs and trade uncertainty. With over $280 billion in trade with Mexico and nearly $70 billion with Canada in 2024 alone, the state’s manufacturing and energy sectors are on edge. Companies like Air Tractor face soaring costs and potential job losses if tariffs bite. While President Trump claims to be using leverage to bring jobs home, the real impact is chilling investment decisions and leaving businesses in limbo—despite the agreement still having a decade to run.
