Gov. Joe Lombardo

Governor Joe Lombardo has been named Vice Chair of the Western Governors Association through July 2027.

He will serve alongside new chair, Hawaii Governor Josh Green. Together they'll spearhead a year-long initiative, Health Beyond Healthcare, focused on health outcomes across the west. 

"It is an honor to serve as Vice Chair of the Western Governors' Association and continue working alongside my fellow governors to advance practical, bipartisan solutions for the people of the Western United States," said Governor Joe Lombardo. "The strength of the WGA has always been its commitment to collaboration and results-driven leadership. Governor Green is a dedicated physician and public servant, and I look forward to supporting his leadership as we advance the Health Beyond Healthcare initiative and enhance the quality of life for the people we serve." 

Governor Lombardo assumed the role of Vice Chair Wednesday during the WGA Annual Meeting.
