You are invited to a conversation on federalism and the COVID response with Governor Bob McDonnell. 

From lockdown policies to mask mandates to vaccination rates, the COVID-19 pandemic has brought home one unassailable fact to every American: Your state government matters.

  • But what does this mean for the future of federalism?
  • What can we learn from the varying policy responses, and COVID outcomes, states have seen over the past year?
  • And what are the unique challenges, imperatives and responsibilities governors face in times of crisis?

On March 22, Robertson School of Government Professor and MA-GOV Chair Dr. A.J. Nolte will hold a discussion of these issues and more with Regent University Distinguished Professor, former Virginia Governor Bob McDonnell.
