Federal

The White House

Local governments play a critical role in the American federal system of government. As the level of government closest to the people, they are responsible for the delivery of the majority of government services. Broad policy decisions made by the federal executive branch directly affect the manner in which local governments function. Government Relations assists County departments in articulating the impacts of policy decisions to federal agencies while looking for mutually beneficial solutions to regulatory concerns.

Congress

In the same way broad policy decisions made by the federal executive branch affect local governments, broad funding decisions made by Congress affect the manner in which local governments function. Government Relations helps the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors articulate positions, concerns, and requests on issues that affect local government and the residents Maricopa County serves.
