Overview
The R Street Institute is an innovative, pragmatic think tank whose mission is to engage in policy research and outreach to promote limited, effective government. In this light, the U.S. Congress’ suboptimal functioning is a major concern. This grant funds R Street’s Governance Project, which studies how Congress operates and examines nonpartisan opportunities for intra-institutional reforms. These include Congress’ oversight, regulatory, budget, and appropriations functions, as well as its human capital and other resources for executing its constitutional duties and meeting the public’s demands in the 21st century.

Grants to this Grantee
for support of a free-market research project for birth control access and information
R Street Institute is a nonpartisan organization that engages in policy research and outreach to promote free markets and limited, effective government. This grant will support R Street to continue advancing a right-of-center case for deregulating birth control by allowing pharmacists to prescribe it directly to patients. R Street is providing intellectual and policy guidance to cultivate broader conservative support for birth control access, and is playing a key role in growing a left-right coalition around the topic. This grant is strongly aligned with our goals of reducing unnecessary barriers to reproductive health care and supporting a diverse advocacy ecosystem. (Strategy: U.S. Reproductive Equity)
