That's right, this was an "ask" from the USA in order to implement the T-MEC (USMCA in English). Given the current US political climate, Mexico got the short stick in this new "deal": Tax was increased (from 16% to 17%, 18% and even 19%), Mexico has to implement these laws and we keep being the "cheap maquila labour" that guarantee the country won't develop in the short/mid term.
