The Western Governors’ Association is proud to celebrate its 40th Anniversary in 2024. The Governors’ commitment to collaboration over the last four decades has kept the promise of bipartisanship alive and shown us just how much we can accomplish when we work together. As we reflect, we’re also looking towards the future and how we can continue to build upon this legacy for the next 40 years.
“I cannot overemphasize the importance of the Western Governors’ Association. WGA has been instrumental in bringing western governors together to address our shared challenges, and to find consensus at a time when our Nation is increasingly divided. In almost every way, it plays an essential role.”
- Former Colorado Governor John Hickenlooper (2014 Chair)
The Western Governors' Association celebrated its 40th anniversary by hosting an afternoon of programming, including fireside chats with current and former Western Governors, as well as other WGA alumni.
