Center of the American Experiment announced today that Mike Amery has been hired as the new Director of Greater Minnesota Outreach. Amery has worked in politics and government for more than 30 years, first serving on the Minnesota campaigns and Washington, DC staff of U.S. Sen. Rod Grams (R-MN). In 2005 he opened the Washington, DC office of a major national physician association and served as the organization’s lead lobbyist through 2018. After joining a defense contracting firm, Amery returned home to Minnesota in 2021.

American Experiment’s presence in Greater Minnesota has grown in recent years through the creation of chapters in regional centers including Rochester, Owatonna, Mankato, Duluth, St. Cloud and Central Minnesota. The Director of Greater Minnesota Outreach serves as the primary liaison between American Experiment and Greater Minnesota, fostering relationships with established chapters, donors, community officials, and other stakeholders. This role involves managing the operations of all six chapters, planning and executing events, and expanding the Center’s initiatives and network.
