History

For most of its life, Governing was published by Washington, D.C.–based Congressional Quarterly, Inc., a subsidiary of the Times Publishing Co. of St. Petersburg, Florida. In 1994, Governing acquired its primary competitor, City & State magazine, and that publication was merged into Governing. In 2009, it was sold to e.Republic.[1]

On August 7, 2019, the magazine announced that it would discontinue publication; its September 2019 issue is the last print edition, and it would close its website and other operations over the next few months.[2] However, it later announced a plan to remain in business with a different focus.[3]
