Anna L. McCauslin is senior policy analyst of state fiscal policy at Americans for Prosperity. Previously, she served in the organization’s Pennsylvania chapter as the deputy state director. She is most proud of helping to stop a $4.5 billion tax increase proposal in the FY 2015-16 Pennsylvania state budget. Before joining AFP’s national policy department, she spent nearly 15 years working around the Pennsylvania state government as an advocate for economic opportunity. Anna earned her bachelor’s degree in political science and a master’s degree in Public Administration from Shippensburg University (go Raiders!).

When she isn’t driving solutions to fix problems facing state legislatures, she prefers to bake pies, keep a vegetable garden and spend time with her close family. Anna is a life-long Pennsylvania resident and lives in York County with her husband Chad – a gunsmith and small business owner – and two passionate, lively children.
