Advance Arkansas Institute (Little Rock, AR)

The Advance Arkansas Institute will:

– Analyze key bills at the committee and floor levels; alert legislators and others via email/print bulletins about bill merits and demerits with appropriate discussion and commentary, so that legislators and the public will ideally be fully informed about the consequences of relevant government actions.

– Similarly, alert activists, legislators, journalists, public officials, and other citizens with frequent and brief bulletins (or in some cases, longer analyses) that explain legislative activities.

– Produce proposals that can be drafted and filed by legislators, as well as appropriate discussion and commentary on these proposals.

– Provide testimony at legislative committee hearings on bills that are especially consistent or inconsistent with the Institute’s mission, either directly or via recruitment of experts.

– Speak to the media as a source of knowledgeable, nonpartisan commentary on public policy.

– More generally, coordinate other activities that inform the public about the virtues of limited and constitutional government, individual freedom, and a free society.
