County Executives of America is the only organization that focuses solely on issues affecting elected county leaders. We meet regularly with federal officials and Members of Congress to determine the best way to deliver federal funds and services that are essential for the administration of local government. Our close contact with federal decision-makers allows our members to shape national policy for the benefit of the local citizens. And our policy of direct communication between local and federal lawmakers helps all government leaders develop effective ways to provide the best programs for the American people.
