Listeners, welcome to “Mexico Tariff News and Tracker.” It’s July 16, 2025, and today brings some of the most dramatic trade moves of Donald Trump’s second administration, with Mexico squarely in the tariff spotlight.

President Trump has officially announced a 30% tariff on Mexican products imported into the United States, with the new rate set to begin August 1. This marks a sharp escalation, up from the current 25% rate on most Mexican goods. Trump detailed this plan in letters to world leaders, stating his goal is to pressure allies and trade partners to agree to what he calls “reciprocal” deals. In his message to Mexico’s President Claudia Sheinbaum, Trump acknowledged ongoing Mexican cooperation on border security and fentanyl, but insisted Mexico has not done enough, accusing the nation of not stopping what he called North America’s transformation into a “Narco-Trafficking Playground.” These tariffs, he argues, are necessary to correct the trade deficit and protect American industries. According to ABC News, the tariffs on Mexico and the European Union, both at 30%, will take effect August 1 unless last-minute trade deals are reached.

In an even more targeted move, the U.S. Department of Commerce this week imposed an immediate 17.09% anti-dumping duty on Mexican tomatoes. This follows the Trump administration’s decision to unilaterally end a longstanding tomato trade agreement, after claims from U.S. growers that Mexican tomatoes were being sold below production costs in the American market. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick said the new tariffs are meant to end what he described as years of unfair competition harming American farmers. For listeners relying on fresh produce, particularly those in southern states, this new tariff could mean a price surge. Experts, including Arizona’s Governor Katie Hobbs, warn that tomato prices could rise an average of 50% as a result, with potential job losses in states heavily involved in tomato distribution, like Arizona and Texas.

Economists warn of wider fallout. Goldman Sachs estimates that the blanket 30% tariffs—even if they cover goods that were previously exempt under the USMCA—could be enough to tip Mexico into recession. Furthermore, auto parts and other manufacturing components not meeting USMCA rules of origin could see their tariffs climb from 25% to 35%, threatening cross-border supply chains.

With Trump reportedly considering additional tariffs of 15% to 20% on countries not receiving direct tariff letters, and the legal status of these new tariffs still being challenged, business and government leaders on both sides of the border are bracing for more volatility in the weeks ahead.
