Ask an Expert: Jerry Pacheco

When it comes to trade, as so many other things in life, Mexico and the United States are joined at the hip. How is Trump’s roller coaster tariff regime affecting our trade and commerce at the border? What will happen with Mexico’s relationship with the U.S.?

He is a nationally recognized expert on international trade and cross-border commerce, frequently called upon to advise U.S. and global leaders—including four Mexican presidents—on trade policy. And he’s ready to answer your questions about tariffs, US-Mexico trade and what he sees on the horizon with so much uncertainty brewing.
