Changes in the way Maquiladora's are taxed in 2008?

I've heard that the Mexican government is considering moving to a flat tax and that this could result in US companies losing the deductibility of the taxes they pay in Mexico from their US corporate income tax. Is this true and if so when is it likely to take place?
