REMI: Trump Immigration Policy – Using the REMI MRUS Model
January 16 @ 2:00 pm - 3:00 pm
REMI is hosting a Trump Immigration Policy: Using the REMI MRUS Model webinar on Thursday, January 16th, from 2:00 PM to 3:00 PM.
This webinar shows how the REMI Multiregional U.S. (MRUS) model is used to evaluate the state and regional impacts of national policies, focusing on immigration. Various immigration policies put forward by incoming President Trump are likely to significantly reduce the net level of international immigration into the U.S. National, state, and local governments need to understand the potential effects of restrictive immigration on their jurisdiction’s economic and fiscal conditions. To evaluate the effect of national policies on state and regional economies, analysts need an economic model that breaks out sub-national economies while still representing the entire U.S. macroeconomy. The REMI MRUS model is built from regional economies that add up to the U.S. Using this model, we will show the potential impacts of reduced net immigration imposed as a national policy, with specific state-level effects and economic interactions among the states.
