State Leadership Initiative is a conservative policy and coalition-building organization focused on helping Republican-led states pursue deregulation, smaller bureaucracies, reduced reliance on federal programs, and what it calls economic dynamism, financial strength, and digital sovereignty.
State-level conservative governance, deregulation, bureaucratic reform, tax and spending restraint, reducing federal dependence, opposition to ESG and DEI frameworks, and digital policy framed around civil liberties and state control.
Primarily supported by private donations and conservative philanthropic or political-aligned contributors; specific major funders are not publicly identified.
Noah Wall (president and founder), Nate Fischer (co-founder), Alex Acosta (board chairman), Ed Corrigan, Kevin Roberts, and New Founding.
