| Happy Saturday. ☕️ |
Welcome to another edition of FT Now! This week, we’re taking a close look at two governors and the impacts their pro-growth policies are having on their states: Gov. Larry Hogan in Maryland and Gov. Kay Ivey in Alabama. Someone who should also be taking a close look? That’d be Democrat presidential candidate Elizabeth Warren, who used her time during this week’s debate to push anti-growth policies like tax hikes. Yes, there was another debate this week. Yes, it’s ok if you didn’t watch it. FT Now will be taking a hiatus next week, so have a Happy Thanksgiving!

| Hogan Delivers on Pledge: Maryland is Open For Business," Labor Numbers Show |
| What Happened: |
| A new report out of Maryland shows just how much the state economy has improved under Republican Gov. Larry Hogan. |
| Why You Should Care: |
| According to the data, more than 6,000 new businesses have been created since Hogan took office five years ago, and 126,000 new jobs have been added. The state’s unemployment rate is also at 3.7% - down from 5.4% when Hogan took over. There’s no doubt the governors’ business-friendly, pro-growth agenda has a lot to do with the progress! |
| What Happens Next: |
| Governor Hogan will continue to pursue policies that turn Maryland into a welcoming place to do business! |

| Kay Ivey is Alabama’s Jobs Governor |
| What Happened: |
| GOP Gov. Kay Ivey is getting some well-deserved credit for the economic development boon that’s happening in Alabama. |
| Why You Should Care: |
| Since Gov. Ivey took office, the state has attracted more than $12 billion in investments. That means more jobs and better opportunities for the people of Alabama! While companies are fleeing high-tax states like California and their burdensome regulations, they’re flocking ones that offer business-friendly environments. |
| What Happens Next: |
| With Gov. Ivey at the helm, more good things for the state of Alabama! |
