Dismissing a White House veto threat, the House voted Tuesday to end a pilot program giving Mexican trucks access to U.S. highways.
The Bush administration stressed that the United States is obligated, under the 1994 North American Free Trade Agreement, to open up American roads to Mexican truckers, and that terminating the year-old demonstration project would have repercussions for American trucks allowed into Mexico. Passage of the House bill, it said “would pose significant and immediate risks to U.S. interests.”

I have always thought that policy to be incredibly stupid, primarily because of the underlying safety issues of having those essentially unregulated and uninspected trucks and drivers on I-35. It's bad enough that Texans are allowed to drive elsewhere.
