Cato Report: Nine of 10 Most Free States in US Are Led by Republicans
Nine of the 10 most free states are led by Republicans, and Arizona tops Cato’s annual ranking for economic and personal freedom.
- The Cato Institute released its "Freedom in the 50 States" report, ranking Arizona first among all states based on evaluations of 97 policy variables across 10 categories.
- Nine of the ten "most free" states in the United States are led by Republicans, according to the analysis, which measures support for personal and economic freedom across policy issues.
- Montana's Greg Gianforte leads the governor rankings with an A grade, while Colorado's Jared Polis ranks second as the only Democrat governor in the top 10.
- Arizona's top ranking stems from policies supporting "private school choice, open enrollment, charter school laws, and homeschooling regulation," plus a "generous universal-eligibility education savings account."
- Conversely, Democrats run seven of the ten least free states, with most bottom-ranked governors receiving F grades, contrasting sharply with Republican-led states' top performance.
