JMI Announces New Senior Vice President

TALLAHASSEE – After almost eight years at The James Madison Institute, the staff and Board of Directors would like to congratulate Logan Padgett as she is promoted to Senior Vice President.

“As JMI continues to influence public policy in both Florida and across the country, Logan’s contributions to the organization have been critical to our strategic efforts. Because of her leadership skills, work ethic and integrity, she has earned this opportunity as we continue down the path of implementing our strategic plan. She has been a major part of our growth and success over the past eight years, and we would not be where we are today without her.” – Dr. Bob McClure, President and CEO, The James Madison Institute  

In her new role, Logan will continue to oversee JMI’s short and long-term communications strategies to promote the organization’s brand and advance its efforts. She will continue to serve as the main point of contact for news and print media. Logan will now also be responsible for overseeing JMI’s policy operation, coalition building, and strategy deployment. Her work has appeared in several publications including Forbes, Fox News Opinion, The Washington Times, The Daily Caller, National Review, Breitbart, and Townhall Magazine. She has presented expert testimony on health care as well as budget and tax related issues in state legislatures across the country. In 2021, Logan earned recognition in INFLUENCE Magazine as a 30 Under 30 Rising Star in Florida Politics. 

“Logan is a vital part of the JMI team. I have yet to meet someone as devoted to and focused on the mission as she is. She thinks strategically and is always working two steps ahead. Because of her work ethic, strong character, and determination, we are all better off. I can’t imagine JMI without Logan, and I look forward to witnessing all that she will accomplish in her well-deserved new role as Senior Vice President.”— Rebecca Liner, Executive Vice President 

“It is an honor to work with and learn from Logan. She is a fantastic mentor, leader, and friend to all of us at JMI. Logan sets a standard of excellence that resonates throughout the team, and we are thankful for her wisdom and guidance. I look forward to seeing how she continues to revolutionize JMI in her new role as Senior Vice President.” — Nicole Kiser, Communications Manager
