Ashleigh Hackel, ITRF Executive Vice President
Iowans for Tax Relief Foundation (ITRF) has named Ashleigh Hackel as its new Executive Vice President. Hackel brings a background in state government and a track record of advancing reforms rooted in free-market principles and aimed at producing a more effective, efficient, and approachable state government.
She most recently served as General Counsel at the Iowa Department of Inspections, Appeals, and Licensing, where she played a key role in implementing Governor Kim Reynolds’ agency reorganization and consolidation efforts. Her work helped reduce licensing burdens, improve regulatory efficiency, and make government more pragmatic and responsive, goals that reflect ITRF’s mission.
“Ashleigh brings valuable legal and policy experience to the table,” said Chris Ingstad, President of Iowans for Tax Relief Foundation. “She understands how government works, and more importantly, how it can work better for Iowans. We’re excited to have her help lead our organization forward.”
As Executive Vice President, Hackel will oversee daily operations, lead internal teams, and manage the Foundation’s fundraising and development efforts. She will work to continue building support for policies that protect taxpayers and expand free-market principles.
