The Republican Governors Association (RGA) is a Washington, D.C.-based 527 organization founded in 1963, consisting of U.S. state and territorial Republican governors.
In 2017 the RGA chairman is Governor Scott Walker of Wisconsin, who assumed the office in November 2016, succeeding Governor Susana Martinez of New Mexico. The rest of the Executive Committee includes Governors Doug Ducey of Arizona, Mary Fallin of Oklahoma, Rick Scott of Florida, Greg Abbott of Texas, Bill Haslam of Tennessee, Charlie Baker of Massachusetts, and Pete Ricketts of Nebraska.
Its Democratic Party counterpart is the Democratic Governors Association. The RGA is not directly affiliated with the non-partisan National Governors Association.
In addition to governors of U.S. states, the RGA also offers membership to Republican governors of U.S. territories.
