U.S. Asks Mexico to Review Alleged Violations of Workers’ Rights at GLM Components

Under the USMCA Rapid Response Labor Mechanism, the Office of the U.S. Trade Representative asked Mexico to review whether auto parts manufacturer GLM Components violated workers’ rights to freedom of association and collective bargaining, and to suspend liquidation of the facility’s unliquidated goods. The petition was filed by the Mexican independent union “Morenas” on September 8, 2026. Mexico has 10 days to agree to the review; if it does, the review must be completed within 45 days.
