The next-door neighbors said in a joint, non-legally binding declaration they desire to create a border that "promotes their economic competitiveness and enhances their security through the secure, efficient, rapid and lawful movement of goods and people."

They will form a steering committee that will begin meeting no later than Aug. 19 to promote the effort.

The statement said the two nations want to "fundamentally restructure the way in which the shared border between Mexico and the United States is managed to enhance public safety, welcome lawful visitors, encourage trade, strengthen cultural ties and reduce the cost of doing business in North America."

Quote
The two nations will work on issues such as reducing congestion at border crossings; promoting "trusted shipper" programs; widening pre-screening and similar programs to improve the interception of dangerous individuals, hazardous goods and contraband; sharing information and cooperating to enhance the processes for repatriating those with criminal records; and improving aviation security  and border security.
