In a press release on Monday, the Republican Attorneys General Association (RAGA) announced that Alabama Attorney General Steve Marshall has been named to its executive committee for the 2018-2019 term.

RAGA is dedicated to electing Republican attorneys general across the nation, with the ultimate goal of supporting “the rule of law, limited government, cooperative federalism, legal reform, free enterprise, aggressive crime fighting, equal opportunity, and the preservation of conservative values.”

In his brief time in office, Marshall has already been a leading conservative voice when it comes to national issues such as illegal immigration, abortion, violent crime and the opioid epidemic. He has been involved in small-group White House and DOJ working groups and panels, with his star clearly still on the rise.

Marshall joins former Alabama Attorney General and Senator Luther Strange (R-AL) in staking out a key leadership role within RAGA. Strange served as chairman of this important organization from 2016-2017.
