Honduras

have ​Honduras and the United States have a long-standing relationship built on mutual trust and cooperation. In addition to helping the United States deter illegal immigration, transnational crime, and narcotics trafficking, the United States and Honduras work closely to improve the rule of law and to enhance economic prosperity in Honduras and the Central American region.
 
According to the U.S. Department of State, America’s work in Honduras focuses on engaging with the “Honduran government, civil society, and private sector to address root causes of illegal immigration to the United States and provide avenues for Hondurans to build a productive future in their country.” The United States is the chief trading partner for Honduras. Bilateral trade between the two nations totaled an estimated $12.3 billion in 2018, supported by various bilateral agreements. Honduras is a member of the CAFTA-DR trade agreement.
 
Honduras is a civil law country where legislation is considered the primary source of law, which is established through codified law, special laws and written administrative regulations. Thus, laws are only valid once the enactment procedure is completed and come into force once they are published in the Official Gazette, such as is established in Articles 213 through 221 of the Constitution. Codes, Laws, Decrees and Cases can all be found in print; they are published in Tegucigalpa, Honduras and are available through the Gaceta, the Official Gazette of the Republic of Honduras.
 
While rule of law remains a challenge, the Honduran government is committed to improving law enforcement and law and order. The Global Liberty Alliance (GLA) is dedicated to strengthening the rule of law by exposing and holding to account persons engaged in transnational crime, such as human and drug trafficking. In Honduras, GLA is currently working to expose unlawful trafficking in persons, such as Cuban medical workers that have been in Honduras for many years. This effort is being undertaken to ensure Cuban medical workers are treated fairly according to Honduran labor laws.
