Mexican Energy Trade Enforcement Act

This bill would require the U.S. Trade Representative to take action against certain Mexican energy policies that favor Mexico's state-owned electric utility (CFE) and state-owned oil company (Pemex). The Trade Representative would have to either request a dispute resolution panel with Mexico under the USMCA trade agreement, or require during the first joint review of the USMCA that Mexico give U.S. energy companies non-discriminatory access. The covered policies are those the United States raised in trade consultations with Mexico in July 2022. The Trade Representative would also have to report to Congress within 90 days on the actions taken.
