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 will discuss 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 program features opening remarks from Hoover Institution Director Condoleezza Rice and panel discussions featuring Stanford University President Jon Levin and other scholars from across Stanford, leading US universities, and governmental organizations.
