The Hoover Prosperity Program held its conference, Challenges Facing the US Economy on January 21, 2025.
The economy was the top issue for Americans voting in the 2024 presidential election. While there is a widespread desire to secure a prosperous future for America, there is broad debate about how to get there. At this conference, world-class scholars and policymakers discussed insights from evidence-based research that can inform public understanding of a set of pressing issues, including the federal deficit, the impact of AI on jobs, the state of inequality in America, and more.
The panel discussion, “Policy Challenges to US Economic Prosperity” featured the following scholars:
Paola Sapienza, J-P Conte Family Senior Fellow, Hoover Institution
Jonathan Rodden, Senior Fellow, Hoover Institution and Professor of Political Science, Stanford University
Brandice Canes-Wrone, Maurice R. Greenberg Senior Fellow and Director of the Center for Revitalizing American Institutions, Hoover Institution and Professor of Political Science, Stanford University
