Bridges and borders: Economic policy across North America

Washington, D.C. and virtual

Hosted by the Peterson Institute for International Economics and the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas

This conference examines key policy and economic challenges shaping the future of North American integration, with a focus on labor mobility, remittance flows and cross-border trade. As the region navigates shifting immigration dynamics and prepares for a pivotal review of the U.S.-Mexico-Canada Agreement in 2026, conference sessions explore how policy decisions affect economic resilience, productivity and regional cooperation. Experts assess the implications for workers, firms and communities and consider strategies for strengthening economic ties across borders.

This event is the second in a two-part conference series. The first installment was held April 10 in Dallas.
