Are There Too Many Mexican Consulates in the U.S.A. ?
« on: May 10, 2026, 07:15:44 am »
Mexico News Report by Allan Wall 5/8/2026

Mexico has 53 consulates on United States territory. It’s the biggest consular network, not just in the U.S., but in the whole world.

Does Mexico really need so many consulates?

The job of a consulate is to represent Country A in the territory of Country B and to serve citizens of Country A who reside in Country B.

Mexican consulates provide services to help Mexicans in the U.S. They also help Americans who are doing business with Mexico.

However, is it really necessary to have 53 Mexican consulates on U.S. soil?



The U.S. government now has the Mexican consulates under review and might reduce their number.

From CBS News: “The State Department is initiating a review of all 53 Mexican consulates operating in the United States, a U.S. official told CBS News on Thursday [May 7], in a move that could lead Secretary of State Marco Rubio to consider ordering the closure of some diplomatic offices...A State Department official said the review is part of a broader effort to align U.S. foreign policy with the Trump administration’s priorities.”

There's too much free shit being given to non-citizens.  Stop that, and there won't be a need for Mexican consulates.

If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.     -Dwight Eisenhower-

"The [U.S.] Constitution is a limitation on the government, not on private individuals ... it does not prescribe the conduct of private individuals, only the conduct of the government ... it is not a charter for government power, but a charter of the citizen's protection against the government."     -Ayn Rand-

Sure. Get rid of at least 45 of them.
