NACo meets GOVERNING

NACo leadership had a great meeting this morning with the new publisher and editor of GOVERNING magazine - Fred Kuhn and Tod Newcombe - at their Connecticut Avenue, N.W. offices.

President Valerie Brown, President-elect Glen Whitley and Immediate Past President Don Stapley discussed the NACo Legislative Conference (which begins tomorrow), NACo's efforts to Restore the Partnership with the federal government, some of NACo's advocacy efforts to secure provisions in the "jobs bill," as well as NACo programs that benefit NACo-member counties and the people who live in member counties.

GOVERNING magazine covers state and local government management, policy and politics. The publication was recently purchased by eRepublic, so today's meeting was the first time NACo leadership had met with the new GOVERNING staff.
