Why Pennsylvania is the Key to Victory with Matt Brouillette (Commonwealth Partners)

What does it take to turn good ideas into lasting policy change?   In this episode of Going Big!, host Kevin Gentry sits down with Matt Brouillette, longtime public policy leader and founder of Commonwealth Partners, to explore his journey from teaching history in San Diego to working alongside legendary state-policy leaders Larry Reed and Joe Overton, eventually leading the Commonwealth Foundation and launching a new organization focused on winning political and policy battles in Pennsylvania.   The conversation goes deeper into Matt’s new book, You GOTTA Win Pennsylvania!, and his argument that the states are the critical battleground for America’s future. He discusses the importance of durable state-level infrastructure, school choice, energy policy, litigation, coalition building, taking risks, learning from defeat, and maintaining a long-term view when victories do not come quickly.   For anyone interested in entrepreneurship, leadership, philanthropy, public policy, or how bold ideas become lasting change, this conversation offers a candid look at what it takes to keep going and build for the long haul.
