RLGA Announces 2025 Executive Committee
WASHINGTON, D.C. –– The Republican Lieutenant Governors Association (RLGA), a caucus of the Republican State Leadership Committee, announced its 2025 Executive Committee today. The announcement follows a decisive 2024 election year in which the organization won six of the nine elections for Lieutenant Governor. Republicans currently hold 25 of 45 Lieutenant Governor’s posts across the country. In 2023, the RSLC went undefeated in protecting our incumbent Lieutenant Governors, and two of our incumbents were the highest vote-getters on the ballot in their respective states, including Louisiana Lieutenant Governor Billy Nungesser and Mississippi Lieutenant Governor Delbert Hosemann.
“As chair of the Republican Lieutenant Governors Association (RLGA), I am committed to expanding our influence by staying true to the needs and desires of everyday Americans who seek opportunities to improve their lives." said Utah Lieutenant Governor and RLGA Chair Deidre Henderson. "We have an opportunity this election cycle to elect more conservative leaders who will focus on reducing costs for families, enhancing community safety, and promoting policies that keep the American Dream alive. Serving on this committee has been an honor and a pleasure. I want to thank my Republican Lieutenant Governor colleagues for their support and confidence as I take on the role of chair of the RLGA."
“In 2024, the American people turned out in large numbers to reject the policy initiatives of the left, which have worsened our economy, and they are looking for leaders to put Americans first,” said Nevada Lieutenant Governor and RLGA Vice Chair Stavros Anthony. “The time to act is now. I am confident that state Republicans will continue to lead a sensible agenda that addresses the needs of the American people and fosters greater prosperity in our country. I am honored to be part of this committee and look forward to collaborating with my colleagues to achieve these goals together.”
“While state Republicans had a successful 2024 election year, we must be cognizant and ready for the Democrats to come back stronger than ever where they will rely on their playbook of bankrolling elections to support their candidates,” said Oklahoma Lieutenant Governor and RLGA Finance Chair Matt Pinnell. “I am incredibly excited to continue working with this executive committee, where we will utilize all the resources in our arsenal to raise more money and help elect more Republican Lieutenant Governors.”

ABOUT RLGA
One of four caucuses under RSLC’s leadership, the Republican Lieutenant Governors Association (RLGA) is the only national organization dedicated to electing Republicans to the offices of lieutenant governor. Across the country, lieutenant governors serve as a state’s second-in-command, performing critical tasks such as overseeing small business recruitment, leading economic development, administering fair elections, maintaining homeland security, and managing disaster recovery. These experiences often prepare our lieutenant governors for higher office, as 10 out of 27 Republican governors previously served as lieutenant governors.
