With the inauguration of President Donald Trump, the Republicans now control the White House, House of Representatives, and the Senate. That balance of power comes with its caveats: a GOP majority in the Senate may secure most of Trump’s cabinet picks. But the tight margins in the House may mean having to use executive orders to push through some policy priorities. Across the aisle, Democrats are re-grouping, and pinning their hopes on clawing back the House and Senate in the 2026 midterms. What’s in store for America’s relationship with other countries like China, Canada, Mexico, Russia, and Ukraine? Will proposed tariffs tank — or bolster business, trade, and the economy? And how might the nation’s healthcare legislation shift under a Republican budget? 

 Join The Sidley Podcast host and Sidley partner, Sam Gandhi, as he speaks with three of the firm’s thought leaders on these issues — Michael Borden, who leads Sidley’s Government Strategies practice, Pattie DeLoatche, a senior policy advisor and a member of the firm’s Government Strategies practice, and Andy Shoyer, a partner in the firm’s Global Arbitration, Trade and Advocacy practice. Together, they discuss what the new Congress may be able to accomplish and how foreign policy under the new administration could affect business.

 Executive Producer: John Metaxas, WallStreetNorth Communications, Inc.
