We present a supersymmetric solution to the strong CP problem based on spontaneous CP violation which simultaneously addresses the affects coming from supersymmetry breaking. The generated CP violating phase is communicated to the quark sector by interacting with a heavy quark a la Nelson-Barr. The Majorana mass of the right handed neutrinos is generated by interactions with the CP violating sector and so does not conserve CP. This gives the neutrino sector a non-trivial CP violating phase which can then generate the baryon asymmetry of the universe through leptogeneis. The problematic phase in the supersymmetry breaking parameters are suppressed by appealing to a particular gauge mediation model which naturally suppresses the phases of the tree-level gluino mass. This suppression plus the fact that in gauge mediation all loop generated flavor and CP violation is of the minimal flavor violation variety allows for a complete and consistent solution to the strong CP problem.
