Family Policy Alliance President and CEO Craig DeRoche was featured in a Washington Post article as an expert source on conservative legislation in 2025.
DeRoche communicated the excitement and momentum among many conservative lawmakers following sweeping victories in November that gave the GOP the majority in the House and Senate along with President-elect Donald Trump’s comeback win for the White House.
“Red state legislatures and governors are chomping at the bit,” said Craig DeRoche, a former Michigan House speaker who is now president of the influential conservative Family Policy Alliance. The group has chapters in 40 states where, he said, conservatives are sending a message to likely members of the incoming Trump administration on a variety of issues: “Don’t fix it there. Send it back to us so we can fix it here.”
“There’s going to be an extraordinary accountability. And red state governors and legislatures are going to lead on that,” DeRoche said.
