America’s hometowns are where we come together as neighbors and fellow
citizens to solve problems and get things done. They are where we create new industries, businesses, and jobs. And they are where we get an early, firsthand view of the full array of challenges and opportunities facing our nation.

The future of America’s hometowns is bound up with the future of our nation.    On behalf of America’s local elected leaders, the National League of Cities looks forward to working with the new President and Congress to build a better future for all of us.
