DES MOINES, IOWA (July 19, 2019) — Effective today, Lieutenant Governor Adam Gregg has been selected to chair the Midwest Region on the National Lieutenant Governors Association’s (NLGA) Executive Committee, becoming one of four regional chairs of the association. He previously served on the NLGA Executive Committee from July 2018 to July 2019.
“I am honored to serve as Midwest Chair and represent our state on the executive committee of the National Lieutenant Governors Association,” said Lt Gov Adam Gregg. “In this role, I will continue to ensure Iowans’ voices are heard and our strong workforce and economic policies are shared across the country.”
“The lieutenant governor was chosen and confirmed to this position bi-partisanly by his peers from across the nation,” said NLGA Executive Director Julia Hurst. “As a NLGA leader, Lt Gov Gregg will work with his colleagues to promote shared priorities and to find and foster multi-state solutions to mutual problems.”
