CSG is a region-based, national organization that promotes excellence in state government. CSG fosters the interstate exchange of insights and ideas to help state officials shape public policy; it offers unparalleled regional, national and international opportunities to network, develop leaders, collaborate and create problem-solving partnerships.
Much of the organization’s work for legislators in this region is done through CSG Midwest’s support of the bipartisan, binational Midwestern Legislative Conference.
CSG Midwest’s products and services include:
- the Bowhay Institute for Legislative Leadership Development for newer lawmakers;
- the MLC Annual Meeting (this year’s event is being held July 21-24 in Columbus); the work of six binational, nonpartisan MLC policy committees;
- policy research and assistance;
- the “Under the Dome” program; and
- publications such as Stateline Midwest.
CSG Midwest also provides secretariat services and support to the Great Lakes-St. Lawrence Legislative Caucus and the Midwest Interstate Passenger Rail Commission.
