We're told by the President and members of both major parties in Congress that NAFTA is succeeding and good for our country, but how true is this?
Under NAFTA, the U.S. exports to Mexico,  parts and components that are assembled into final products that are then returned to the United States. The number of products that Mexico assembles and exports--such as refrigerators, TVs, automobiles, and computers--has mushroomed under the NAFTA agreement. Many of these products are produced in the Maquiladora export processing zones in Mexico, where parts enter duty free and are re-exported to the United States in assembled products, with duties paid only on the value added in Mexico. The share of total U.S. exports to Mexico that is represented by Maquiladora imports has risen from 39% of U.S. exports in 1993 to 61% in 2002.2 The number of such plants increased from 2,114 in 1993 to 3,251 in 2002.
Since March 2001, the U.S. has lost 2.4 million jobs that were primarily in the manufacturing sector.
