This week, our President and CEO Frankie Miranda had the privilege of joining the American Mexican Leadership Council (AMLC) inaugural bipartisan delegation in Mexico City alongside with AMCL co-founder and Hispanic Federation board member, Ambassador Nathalie Rayes, Co-Chair of the Mexican American Congressional Caucus Congressman Joaquin Castro, and Chair of the US Commission on Civil Rights Rochelle Garza, among many other civic and business leaders.
Highlights included a briefing at the U.S. Embassy, discussions on the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA), as well as challenges and opportunities for economic cooperation and growth on both sides of the border.
To conclude this visit, Frankie moderated a panel discussion on the significance of philanthropy and leadership in promoting cross-border collaboration.
About 40 million people of Mexican heritage reside in the United States, contributing close to $2 trillion annually to the country’s economy. Mexico stands as the largest trading partner of the United States, with over $935 billion in annual trade supporting millions of American jobs. Earlier this year, AMLC played a pivotal role in the establishment of the first bipartisan U.S.-Mexico Congressional Caucus. This delegation continues to build upon its foundation.
Hispanic Federation is a proud partner of AMLC and their mission to strengthening connections between the U.S and Mexico.
