REGIONAL ECONOMIC UPDATE

PIA ORRENIUS

Sponsored by Parkland Foundation and Quest Capital Management                 

COVID-19 induced shelter-in-place regulations resulted in unprecedented declines in Texas economic activity in spring 2020. While the Texas economy has regained its footing, the recovery has been uneven, and employment remains below pre-COVID levels. How have various sectors of the Texas economy been impacted?  Come and find out more details about current state of the Texas economy and the outlook for 2021. Pia M. Orrenius, Vice President and Senior Economist, Federal Reserve Bank, is a labor economist working on regional economic growth and demographic change. She manages the regional and microeconomics group in the Dallas Fed Research Department, is executive editor of the quarterly publication Southwest Economy and co-edited Ten Gallon Economy: Sizing up Economic Growth in Texas (2015, Palgrave MacMillan). Her academic research focuses on the labor market impacts of immigration, unauthorized immigration and U.S. immigration policy.

She is research fellow at the Tower Center for Public Policy and International Affairs and the Mission Foods Texas-Mexico Center at Southern Methodist University and at the IZA Institute of Labor in Bonn, Germany, as well as adjunct scholar at the American Enterprise Institute. Orrenius is also adjunct professor at Baylor University (Dallas campus), where she teaches in the executive MBA program.
