The U.S.-Mexico Border Region must cope with a fast-growing population as well as issues relating to security, environmental concerns, health, water, immigration, transportation and infrastructure.
The United States-Mexico Chamber of Commerce, in conjunction with U.S. Members of the House of Representatives has hosted this conference with a now eighteen-year tradition, to address these concerns.

The conference aims to provide a venue where there can be an open and timely discussion on current conditions at the border and how these challenges can and should be addressed.
