ORLANDO, Fla. - According to a new report, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis is one of the best governors in the country.

The American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC), a conservative group, released its rankings for each governor in the country.

DeSantis came in at No. 6.

The ratings were based on data such as the handling of federal funds, and policies around education and taxes. The governors were ranked using a scale from 1 to 5, with 5 being the best. DeSantis was given a 5 by ALEC.

DeSantis has been in office, Florida has consistently been among the top 10 states in Rich States, Poor States economic outlook rankings,” the report states. “Gov. DeSantis also ranks as the second-best governor in fiscal policy. Despite being in office for less than two years, Gov. DeSantis has made clear Florida’s reputation for pro-growth economic policy will continue under his administration.”
