SUMMARY:Globalist Coffeehouse: The U.S. and Mexico Relationship - What’s Next?
DESCRIPTION:Mexico is our largest trading partner—almost $800 billion last year. Our border includes four states and is nearly 2\,000 miles long. Both of our countries are trying to address numerous concerns. Mexico has its first female president and issues like the criminal drug cartels and immigration on its southern border. Finally\, a new administration will take office in January. Rhetoric aside\, how will our policies impact this relationship in the coming years? \nPlease join us for a very lively discussion on a rather serious topic. \n \nFor more details contact: \nEllen Murry\, Co-chair\, of the Globalist Coffeehouse: ellen.murry@yahoo.com \nPolina Anastassieva\, Co-chair\, of the Globalist Coffeehouse: polina@wacaustin.org
