This is California, where no problem is too great to solve and no person is too small to matter. That’s why I’m running to deliver a California we can afford, and to defend a California we can’t afford to lose.

Pope Leo may visit the Basílica de Guadalupe in Mexico City soon, as part of a visit to Latin America. Mexico City would be a quick in-quick out, described by @El_Universal_Mx as a 'layover' on his way to Uruguay, Argentina and Peru. eluniversal.com.mx/mundo/pap…

Muy buena charla en el simposio del @MilkenInstitute sobre el futuro de nuestra relación económica. 🇺🇸🇲🇽 Los Estados Unidos y México tienen algo que ningún otro país puede replicar: nuestra cercanía geográfica, cadenas de suministro integradas y profundos lazos económicos y humanos. Tenemos todo lo necesario para construir una relación que sea la envidia del mundo. Pero la prosperidad y la seguridad van de la mano. Juntos, como socios, podemos convertir estas ventajas únicas en más inversiones, empleos y un futuro más seguro y próspero para nuestros pueblos. Hacerlo separado genera más desafíos y obstáculos para la seguridad y el crecimiento económico.

“China doesn’t have a Mexico. Europe doesn’t have a Mexico. We do.” Texas billionaire Ross Perot Jr. says a fully integrated North America has the demographics and resources needed to compete globally, calling Mexico key to the region’s ability to “grow and prosper."

México dejó escapar dos proyectos de inversión extranjera por no contar con la energía eléctrica necesaria para su operación. La falta de suministro llevó a una empresa de Taiwán a trasladar un proyecto de semiconductores a Tailandia y a otra a instalar sus granjas de servidores para inteligencia artificial en Brasil. De acuerdo con José Medina Mora Icaza, presidente del Consejo Coordinador Empresarial (CCE), el país necesita aumentar su capacidad de generación eléctrica para atraer más inversiones y responder a la demanda de sectores como los centros de datos y la inteligencia artificial.

I testified before the US International Trade Commission. The paradox: Mexican cars carry ~40% U.S. content, Canadian cars ~50%. Japanese and Korean🚗carry far less, yet face lower tariffs. US tariffs favors cars with less US content over the ones built w/ its closest partners.

Marco Rubio wants the West to rediscover what made it great. But what truly distinguishes Western civilization is not its military power or national pride, as Rubio suggests, but its intellectual and political traditions. My take:

It is hard not to feel sympathy for Mexico’s president in the face of Donald Trump’s attacks. But in hardening her approach to America’s president, she may be missing an opportunity economist.com/the-americas/2…
