NEW MEXICO SEES OPPORTUNITY IN TEXAS BORDER DISRUPTIONS

It's supporting a new international rail line.

SANTA FE, N.M. (AP) — New Mexico is highlighting its support for proposals that
would route an international rail line through its Santa Teresa border crossing,
capitalizing on Mexico's unease with disruptions along the Texas portion of the
U.S. border with Mexico.

Mexico had considered a route through Texas, but in recent days officials have
said they can no longer rely on that state. Texas Gov. Greg Abbott, a
Republican, in April required all commercial trucks from Mexico to undergo extra
inspections, tying up traffic and causing millions in losses.

The administration of Democratic New Mexico Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham said
Wednesday that it will send a delegation of economic development and
transportation officials to Mexico City next week to explore opportunities to
expand commercial infrastructure at the San Jeronimo-Santa Teresa crossing,
about 20 miles (36 kilometers) west of El Paso, Texas.

New Mexico Economic Development Secretary Alicia Keyes said the state has
already requested a U.S. presidential permit for a rail bypass route through
Santa Teresa. Separately, she said a study on expanding infrastructure at the
New Mexico crossing is near completion.

She said recent disruptions at Texas crossings change the outlook for Santa
Teresa.

“They have issues with pollution and wait times and security,” Keyes said of
Texas' border entry points. “We have the opportunity to really envision what a
dignified port of entry would look like."

Mexico’s Economy Secretary Tatiana Clouthier was more forceful last week on the
fate of a proposed rail line linking the Pacific coast port of Mazatlan in
Mexico’s Sinaloa state with the U.S. and Canada.

“I don’t think we’re going to use Texas anymore because we cannot put all our
eggs in one basket and be held hostage to those who want to use trade as a
political issue,” Clouthier told a business conference. “We are going to look
for another connection point.”



Mexican diplomats followed up Tuesday in Washington with U.S. Secretary of
Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas and touted a rail line linking Mexican
seaports on the Pacific with the San Jeronimo-Santa Teresa crossing in New
Mexico.

Some truckers have reported waiting more than 30 hours to cross during the Texas
state inspections. Others blocked one of the world’s busiest trade bridges in
protest.

Abbott, who is up for reelection in November and has made the border his top
issue, fully lifted the inspections after reaching agreements with neighboring
Mexican states that outline new commitments to border security.
