Overview
The R Street Institute is an innovative, pragmatic, right-of-center think tank that conducts research into ways to achieve "limited, effective government." Since Congress is the key governing institution, its suboptimal functioning is a major concern. This grant funds the Institute’s Governance Project, which explores how Congress operates and examines nonpartisan opportunities for intra-institutional reforms. These include the mechanisms and processes Congress uses to carry out its 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.

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)
