Federal Government Affairs

Our federal government affairs work spans our institutional policy areas and takes the form of educational outreach, testimony, vote alerts, coalition letters and more. We engage with congress and executive agencies to promote pragmatic, free-market solutions to the most pressing national policy challenges.
