About me
Grover Norquist is founder and president of Americans for Tax Reform and one of the most influential anti-tax advocates in modern American politics. For decades, he has led efforts to reduce marginal tax rates, simplify the tax code, and restrain the growth of government through disciplined coalition-building.
Best known for the Taxpayer Protection Pledge — signed by hundreds of elected officials — Norquist has shaped fiscal debates at both the state and federal levels. His weekly strategy meetings in Washington have convened policymakers, activists, and movement leaders across the conservative and libertarian spectrum.
At FreedomFest, Norquist argues that limiting government begins with limiting its appetite — and that cutting taxes remains one of the most powerful tools for expanding economic freedom.
