American Cooperation with Our Neighbors Act

This bill requires the Secretary of State, working with the U.S. Agency for International Development, to give Congress a strategy within 270 days for building cooperation between U.S. and Mexican state and local governments. The strategy covers law enforcement cooperation to curb fentanyl and other synthetic opioid trafficking, dialogue with local groups and businesses, and resources for border towns. The President must send Congress an update on the strategy within 2 years, and the State Department cannot start data sharing under the strategy until it notifies certain congressional committees. The bill also directs the State Department, with the Treasury Department, to review and report on ways to expand financial access in Caribbean Community (CARICOM) member countries.
