A native of Massachusetts, Grover Norquist has been one of most effective issues management strategists in Washington for three decades. Norquist is famous for saying he wanted to make government “small enough to drown in a bathtub.” Norquist chairs the Washington, D.C.-based “Wednesday Meeting,” a weekly gathering of more than 150 elected officials, political activists, and movement leaders.
