Georgia Public Policy Foundation Information

Changing Georgia Policy, Changing Georgians’ Lives – Since 1991 The Georgia Public Policy Foundation is a 501(c)(3) non-profit, nonpartisan research institute. Our mission is to improve the lives of Georgians through public policies that enhance economic opportunity and freedom. We believe good public policy is based upon fact, an understanding of sound economic principles and the core principles of our free enterprise system – economic freedom, limited government, personal responsibility, individual initiative, respect for private property and the rule of law. Since 1991, the Georgia Public Policy Foundation has conducted scholarly research and analysis of state public policy issues and worked to educate citizens, policy-makers and the media. The Foundation is state-focused, independent, non-partisan and market-oriented in its approach. The Foundation hosts more than a dozen events each year throughout the state that allow members to meet and discuss issues with political, education, media and business leaders. Past speakers include the President of the United States, U.S. Speaker of the House, Supreme Court Justices, U.S. senators, representatives, presidential candidates, ambassadors, state officials, governors, members of the national media and area business leaders.
