Southern Governors' Association

The '''Southern Governors' Association''' was a United States association of governors founded in 1934. It was the oldest and historically the largest of the regional governors associations. Since its first meeting years ago to discuss the repeal of discriminatory rates for transporting goods by rail, the SGA had represented the common interests of Southern chief executives and provided a vehicle for promoting them.
