Under the North American free trade agreement (NAFTA), Mexico truckers were to have been allowed to drive their trucks directly into the United States and avoid the costly and time-consuming border unloading that took place prior to the agreement. However, fearing job losses in the industry, the U.S. Teamster union rigorously opposed the legislation. Although the group ultimately lost its fight, the United States still did not give Mexican truckers freedom to deliver their goods, prompting Mexico to institute retaliatory measures affecting $2.4 billion of goods exported from the United States.

Why did the United States respond to the teamsters? Why are those affected by Mexico's retaliatory tariffs not lobbying congress for relief? Should the United States protect the teamsters at the expense of agricultural in California and Washington?
