A Message 
from our Chair

As Chair of the MGA, I look forward to working with my fellow Midwestern governors on securing and growing the Midwest’s energy economy. As we undergo a national energy transition, the MGA region has developed tremendous clean energy resources. It is vital that we continue to have access to a secure and reliable electric grid that meets the changing energy needs of our region. We need the ability to move that energy from state to state and to other parts of the country.

Midwesterners enjoy an unsurpassed quality of life. Our four distinct seasons, cultural and sporting activities, culinary delights, affordability, natural beauty, and friendly nature of residents continue to make the region a go-to location. The Midwest is thriving with international city centers, urban regrowth, and rural communities serving as our nation’s backbone. With quality education systems, low crime rates, close-knit communities and outdoor activities, the Midwest continues to be unparalleled for its living, business, and recreational opportunities.  

I look forward to working with my fellow governors to ensure our region continues to be the best place to live, work, start a family, get an education, visit, do business, and even retire.
