Democratic Governors Launch Pro-Democracy Group amid Election Fallout

Democratic governors J. B. Pritzker (Illinois) and Jared Polis (Colorado) revealed on Wednesday that they will spearhead a national gubernatorial initiative to protect against threats to democracy.

Governors Safeguarding Democracy (GSD) will launch as a nonpartisan coalition aimed at “[leveraging] the collective strength, experience, and institutional knowledge in governors’ offices across the country to craft laws and policies that protect the rule of law and serve the people of our great states,” the group’s website reads.
