Behind the Scenes in Mexico City: U.S.-Mexico Jobs Talks

On the third and final leg of a three-nation Latin America mission focused on jobs, energy, and economic security, U.S. House Speaker John Boehner (R-OH) and a bipartisan House delegation meet with Mexican President Felipe Calderon at Los Pinos, the office and residence of Mexico's president, then participate in a roundtable discussion led by U.S. Ambassador Anthony Wayne with Mexico's Secretary of Economy, Bruno Ferrari, and other top Mexican jobs officials. Mexico is the United States' third-largest export partner. U.S. trade with Mexico, which has flourished in the 18 years since the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) was launched, is vital to U.S. jobs.

keep sending jobs outside the us and soon there will be a US revolt the size of Montana.

this camera must be a direct uplink view to the situation room, because I highly doubt the pres of Mexico is going to let someone film their talks.

Yea we been exporting our factories to mexico and mexico is setting up factories here cause they dont like our prices. NAFTA is our corner hore.

How many jobs have left the U.S. for mexico?

[SuperJourne]

I can 100% agree with all the Posters below. NO NO on NAFTA and Spending OUR money trying to get jobs for other countries. WHEN Mexico' can clean up its own darn country and murders and drug cartels, and the USA does the same, then maybe we can talk business.

Meantime, in that 10 years or so, YOU need to concentrate on the USA, Stop the AID to all foreign countries unless for a Natural Disaster Aid. Get responsible or Get Out.

Work on tax relief Business. Support Americans for a change.

NAFTA is vital to U.S. jobs?

Yeah, vital in killing them!

NAFTA destroyed our manufacturing base! Just google it and see for yourself!!

How nice you're in Mexico while the USA crashes and burns.

And while you continually chip away at our freedoms, the Bill of Rights and Constitution with hideous Bills like the extension of the Patriot Act, the NDAA Act and the upcoming Enemy Expatriation Act, along with SOPA and Protect IP Bills, it is clear to many that we have to vote every single one of you OUT!

5:26 THIS SAYS IT ALL! Unfortunately the American government has absolutely no clue of how to break the cycle.  Stop depending on foreign countries, stop sending aide to foreign countries, and let this country be independent like it was meant to be. We need to take care of ourselves before we can take care of everyone else! The time has come, and the time is now. If you and your colleagues can't do it Mr. Speaker, we sure as hell can elect someone who can! Stand proud, stand strong, and fight!
