US State & Territorial Officials — Legislators, Governors & Statewide Executives
PEP · classification About PEPs →
PEP roster US state and territorial officials: state legislators, governors, and statewide executive officers (lieutenant governor, attorney general, secretary of state, and similar), for all 50 states, DC, Puerto Rico and the territories — sourced from the Open States public-domain roster and the National Governors Association.
A match means this person holds or held a US state or territorial elected or senior executive office — a subnational PEP due-diligence trigger, not adverse information.
