AHRI Urges State Department Help for HVACR Industry in Mexico

In a letter to Secretary of State Mike Pompeo this week, AHRI President & CEO Stephen Yurek requested the urgent assistance of the Department of State in "convincing the federal, state, and local jurisdictions in Mexico to allow continued manufacturing operations, while our members commit to adhere to strict workplace safety and health standards." Yurek explained that in addition to potentially harming customers in Mexico, "the continued inability of some of our member companies to manufacture products in their Mexican factories will very soon severely impact our ability to supply these essential products to the American market, putting American lives and health at risk."
