Listeners, today on Mexico Tariff News and Tracker, we’re bringing you the latest headlines and details on the ongoing US-Mexico tariff situation and how President Trump’s policies have shaped this crucial relationship in 2025.

On July 12th, President Donald Trump announced new tariff measures, setting a sweeping 30% tariff on Mexican products, with implementation beginning August 1. That announcement rocked North American trade networks and sent shockwaves through supply chains, manufacturing, and consumer sectors, as reported by Mondaq. The move came after months of escalating trade friction, beginning earlier in the year when Trump used national emergency declarations to impose 25% tariffs on most goods from Mexico and Canada, based on the International Emergency Economic Powers Act.

The core motivation behind these tariffs, according to administration statements, centers on curbing fentanyl trafficking and addressing what Trump calls an “unfair” trade deficit. These tariffs mark a dramatic reversal from decades of expanding free trade with US allies. The Wall Street Journal has warned this shift reshapes America’s ties to Mexico, reversing long-standing policies and sending manufacturers scrambling to accommodate new cost structures.

Major US businesses expressed alarm, urging Trump to reconsider. On March 4, the tariffs rolled out, followed by Canada imposing $20 billion in retaliatory 25% duties on US goods and Mexico preparing a similar move. While delays and exemptions emerged for USMCA-compliant goods, most Mexican exports have faced steep duties unless special paperwork is completed. Tens of thousands in Mexico City celebrated when exemptions expanded, but for many sectors, including automotive and electronics, the pain continues.

Adding legal drama to the economic impact, the US Court of Appeals ruled in August that most global tariffs issued under the IEEPA were unconstitutional, challenging Trump’s authority to impose them unilaterally. This ruling has thrown the fate of the tariffs, including those against Mexico, into uncertainty. The rates remain in place until at least mid-October, pending a Supreme Court review. Trump remains defiant on Truth Social, insisting that removing the tariffs would spell disaster for American workers and threatening further escalation if the courts do not side with his administration.

The average applied US tariff rate has climbed to 19.5% across the board, with some Mexican goods hit even harder. These increases have contributed directly to a projected 0.9% drop in US GDP for 2025, with American households facing tax burdens up $1,304 as a result. Meanwhile, Mexican families, especially those near border manufacturing hubs like Ciudad Juárez, are losing jobs in the thousands, according to The Independent.

Listeners should watch the Supreme Court’s next steps and keep an eye on Mexico’s potential retaliation, which could further rock cross-border business.
