DENVER ~ Denver, CO - Governor Jared Polis of Colorado released a statement today congratulating and celebrating the historic inauguration of Claudia Sheinbaum as the first female president of Mexico. President Sheinbaum's vision for Mexico includes safe communities, job opportunities, and support for families.
Governor Polis expressed his excitement to continue strengthening the partnership between Colorado and Mexico in terms of agriculture and trade. In 2023, Colorado exported $1.6 billion to Mexico and imported $1.2 billion from the country, making it one of Colorado's top trade partners. Mexico accounts for 16% of Colorado's export trade and is the state's third largest import partner.
Over the past five years, investments from Colorado companies in Mexico have resulted in $69 million in capital expenditure and created 447 jobs. Agriculture also plays a significant role in the relationship between Colorado and Mexico. In 2021, Governor Polis praised a decision by the Mexican Supreme Court to lift a barrier on imports of U.S. fresh potatoes, including those from Colorado.

Governor Polis has been actively involved in promoting strong ties between the two countries. As a member of Congress, he participated in the US-Mexico Parliamentary exchange and co-chaired the bipartisan US-Mexico Friendship Caucus.
In 2022, Governor Polis joined forces with Kate Greenberg, Commissioner of the Colorado Department of Agriculture, and Jenny Lester Moffitt, Under Secretary at the U.S. Department of Agriculture, to announce an expansion of export markets for Colorado's potato producers.
The inauguration of President Sheinbaum marks a significant moment in history for Mexico as she becomes its first female president. With Governor Polis' commitment to strengthening partnerships between Colorado and Mexico, both countries can look forward to continued growth and success in various industries such as agriculture and trade.
