BRIEF: 5️⃣ Things To Know About The Arizona-Mexico Relationship

________________________________________________________________________

The Arizona-Mexico Commission (AMC) is Arizona’s premier cross-border nonprofit organization. Our mission is to improve the economic prosperity and quality of life for all Arizonans through strong, public/private collaborations in advocacy, trade, networking and information.
Arizona knows firsthand the value of strong international relationships in an increasingly connected global economy and society. And our shared border with Mexico offers Arizona the opportunity to work across international lines to achieve shared goals, and offer a unique region primed for international investment.
That’s why for nearly six decades, the AMC has worked to strengthen Arizona’s ties to Mexico and build a cross-border community of professionals from nearly every industry from agriculture to medicine. This mission is fueled by the policy priorities of the Governor and in line with his vision for an Arizona that ensures “Opportunity for All.” The work of the AMC’s binational committees drive this mission, acting as industry and community advocates in partnership with the Comisión Sonora-Arizona.

Trade

International trade and commerce are a substantial part of Arizona’s economy, with over $16 billion in two-way trade in 2018. And visitors from Mexico contribute more than $7 million every day shopping in our stores, eating at our restaurants, staying in our hotels and other businesses, contributing substantially to Arizona’s economy. The AMC is committed to ensuring continued growth of trade and tourism with Mexico, by supporting key projects and policies that can support this critical piece of our economy.
