HLED

On September 9, 2021, the United States and Mexico relaunched the HLED, a cabinet-level dialogue that meets annually to provide a strategic, measurable, and goal-oriented platform to advance economic and social priorities central to fostering regional prosperity, expanding job creation, promoting investment in our people, and reducing inequality and poverty. 

The HLED is co-chaired by Commerce, State, and USTR. The Dialogue has a four-pillar framework that is flexible in nature to include new opportunities, as appropriate. The four pillars are:

1. Building Back Together
2. Promoting Sustainable Economic and Social Development in Southern Mexico and Central America
3. Securing the Tools for Future Prosperity, and 
4. Investing in our People.
