[The Council of State Governments @CSGovts]

CSG mourns the passing of former Illinois legislator, secretary of state, and two-term governor, Jim Edgar, a popular public servant who led his state with pragmatism and humility. In 1993, Gov. Edgar served as CSG National President, a role that he embraced as a passionate ambassador for bipartisan collaboration in state government and civility in public discourse.

CSG is a better organization because of his generous and thoughtful leadership and his state and our nation will continue to benefit from his legacy for years to come.
