On Oct. 8, 2026, the United States Trade Representative invoked the USMCA Labor Mechanism, asking Mexico to review workers’ rights denial at GLM Components.
The Interagency Labor Committee for Monitoring and Enforcement received an RRM petition on September 8, 2026, from the independent union Sindicato Regeneración Nacional de Trabajadores y Empleados de la República Mexicana “Morenas,” alleging interference with union activity and retaliatory firings.
After reviewing the petition and accompanying information, the committee found sufficient credible evidence of a denial of freedom of association and collective bargaining.
The Trade Representative submitted a request to Mexico under Annex 31‑A of the USMCA for Mexico to conduct a review.
The Trade Representative also directed the Treasury Secretary to suspend liquidation of unliquidated entries from the GLM Components facility.
Mexico has ten days to agree to conduct the review and, if it agrees, 45 days from the request to complete the review.
