Policy

The RGA knows that winning elections is only the first step in transforming our country. Developing and implementing good policy is every bit as important. That’s why we dedicate so much time to ensuring our governors and candidates have access to the latest innovative ideas. This past summer we hosted a development program for our gubernatorial candidates that armed them with the best policy practices of the Republican governors.

The best ideas rarely come from Washington, D.C. Instead, they come out of the states and are driven by Republican governors. Republican governors led welfare reform in the 1990’s, and our governors today are focused on solving our challenges on issues like healthcare, energy and economic policy. Governors are the only Republicans able to enact effective, conservative ideas while the Democrats control Washington, and the policies our governors are implementing in their states can become models for the country.

Republican governors know they will not always agree with each other completely on every issue. But they are united in the belief that the states are the best incubators from which to develop solutions to our country’s most pressing challenges. Over time, the best ideas each governor is putting forward in his or her own state will take hold in other states and in Washington, D.C. In this manner, Republican governors will solve issues in the states before they will be solved by bureaucrats in Washington.
