R Street Institute is a nonprofit, nonpartisan, public policy research organization. Our mission is to engage in policy research and outreach to promote free markets and limited, effective government.

We believe free markets work better than the alternatives. We also recognize that the legislative process calls for practical responses to current problems. To that end, our motto is “Free markets. Real solutions.”

We offer research and analysis that advance the goals of a more market-oriented society and an effective, efficient government, with the full realization that progress on the ground tends to be made one inch at a time. In other words, we look for free-market victories on the margin.

Billed as a "Policy Wonk Rumble," the panel compared the merits of different ways to use the tax code to encourage clean energy and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Also featured on the panel were Peter Bryn of Citizens Climate Lobby, Travis Bradford of Columbia University, Rob Sisson of ConservAmerica, and Rod Richardson of the Grace Richardson Fund.
