In a letter to 
Secretary of Agriculture Tom Vilsack and US Trade Representative Ambassador Katherine Tai thanking them for.their efforts to improve the export situation for U.S. fresh potatoes to Mexico, the National Potato Council was quoted as syaing:
"Dear Secretary Vilsack and Ambassador Tai, On behalf of the thousands of family farms across the United States involved in the potato industry, the National Potato Council and the undersigned state potato organizations would like to thank you and your respective teams for the relentless efforts to fully open the Mexican market for U.S. fresh potatoes. With the recent Mexican Supreme Court ruling, it appears significant progress is being made to resolving this long-standing trade dispute."
The letter continues to stress the market access for the U.S. goods, saying:
"Opening the Mexican market will provide a much-needed boost to the U.S. potato industry by providing access to 130 million new consumers. It will also allow Mexican citizens access to healthy, nutritious U.S. potatoes at affordable prices. Once the market is open, our industry is committed to expanding potato consumption in Mexico to benefit both U.S. and Mexican potato growers."
"Despite these positive developments, as we approach the finish line in this long-standing dispute, there are serious concerns about the long-term prospects for successful market access for U.S. potatoes in Mexico. Our concerns come from a 20-year history of the Mexican potato industry and Mexican government undertaking actions to undermine agreements made to open the market."
