Without a comparative perspective, we miss most of the trends in state policy making, and we miss the bigger picture of the changes in the federal relationship. There are, however, a few excellent sources of comparative state political news available, such as Governing magazine.”—Why States Matter: An Introduction to State Politics, by Gary Moncrief and Peverill Squire

Michigan Governor Rick Snyder Lansing, Michigan

More than ever, America’s 50 statehouses and 90,000 city halls and county seats are where real governing happens — where the tough decisions get made and leaders tackle big problems. Think health care and pensions. Job creation and social services. Fixing and investing in bridges, roads and transit. Innovations in education, lean government and citizen engagement.
State and local government spending totals $3.2 trillion a year, which is 1.5 times more than non-defense federal spending. With 19 million employees, the state and local government workforce is 7 times that of the federal government. Combined, America’s state and local governments are one of the largest markets for goods and services in the world.
Because State & Local Governments Matter More Than Ever
THE POWER OF STATES & LOCALITIES
Michigan Governor Rick Snyder Lansing, Michigan
2014
Where the federal government will not act, states are stepping in. Our message is clear: States are leading and we encourage our federal partners to work more closely with us and to take note and to use the policy ideas coming from their state partners. Above all, please do not get in our way.”— NGA co-chairs Oklahoma Governor Mary Fallin and Colorado Governor John Hickenlooper at the 2014 National Governors Association Winter Meeting
