Together as governors, we stood up for the larger notion of personal freedom and responsibility and opposed the Washington “bailout mentality” that looks to government rather than ourselves for solutions. “At a personal level, I consider Rick and Anita good friends and am indebted to them for their personal kindnesses offered over the years." ### Governors Against Bailouts, 2008 Wall Street Journal Joint Op-Ed by Governors Rick Perry & Mark Sanford | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
