NextImg:America First Policy Institute Announces New Leadership After Trump Taps Founders for Cabinet

The America First Policy Institute announced changes to its leadership team Thursday to advance its mission after founders Brooke Rollins and Linda McMahon were tapped for Cabinet positions in the Trump administration.

Greg Sindelar, chief executive officer of the Texas Public Policy Foundation, was appointed as the new interim president and chief executive officer of AFPI, a policy organization launched in 2021 by Rollins, McMahon, and Larry Kudlow “to advance policies that put the American people first,” according to its website.

President Donald Trump picked Rollins to lead the Department of Agriculture and McMahon to oversee the Department of Education. Kudlow continues to serve on AFPI’s board in addition to hosting his Fox Business show.

“These appointments reflect our commitment to securing the future of our nation,” Sindelar said in a press release. “We’re continuing our momentum and embracing the opportunities ahead. I’m honored to lead AFPI as we advance policies that ensure America thrives for generations to come.”

In his nearly 18 years at TPPF, Sindelar served as director of operations, chief operating officer, and executive director before becoming CEO in 2021. He played key roles in TPPF’s opening of a Washington, D.C., office and the development of the organization’s Austin headquarters.

At the Republican National Convention in July, Sindelar spoke with The Daily Signal about bringing Texas values to other states and the nation’s capital.

“We’ve been lucky in Texas. We have great political leadership. The culture and the values there have really helped make the state what it is,” Sindelar said. “What we want to do is export that to other states. We’re active in a couple dozen states. We are active even in D.C., usually working with organizations like Heritage.”

He added: “My perspective is if California wants to go ruin itself, well that’s kind of up to them. But let’s let Texas have the roadway to go do the right thing. We’ve had a lot of success doing that. We are not in it for any notoriety or credit, but we want to help states be as prosperous as Texas.”

Sindelar succeeded The Heritage Foundation’s current president, Kevin Roberts, as chief executive of TPPF in 2021.

Roberts wrote in a congratulatory post on X, “Under Greg’s leadership, AFPI will remain a formidable force, ensuring that America First doesn’t just endure—it shapes the next century, restoring self-governance and securing the future of this great nation.”

Roberts’ X post includes a screenshot of an Axios report about AFPI’s “100-year plan” to promote Trump’s agenda after he leaves office.

According to the report, “the group is scaling up as an incubator for the America First movement beyond Jan. 20, 2029—promising to proselytize its policies for the next century.”

AFPI named other key appointees to leadership roles in its announcement:

With this expanded leadership team, AFPI aims to continue to “build on the strong foundation laid out by its original team,” the foundation’s press release said.
