Border Trade Adviser Says USMCA Uncertainty Still Matters for Local Businesses

Businesses that move goods across North America should keep preparing for possible changes tied to the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement,.

The update says the United States’ decision not to extend the agreement in 2026 does not immediately change day-to-day trade rules. It does, however, keep the review process and future of the trade pact on the radar for companies operating across the United States, Mexico and Canada.

For McAllen and the Rio Grande Valley, where logistics, customs brokerage, manufacturing and cross-border commerce are part of the regional economy, the issue is practical rather than abstract. Businesses may need to keep records current, review compliance practices and watch for changes that could affect supply chains.

The key takeaway for local companies: uncertainty around trade policy is not over, and preparation remains part of doing business along the border.
