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.

Justice for Work is a coalition of organizations spanning the ideological spectrum which seeks to raise awareness and advocate for lowering the barriers created by laws and regulations that unnecessarily restrict economic participation. 

The event included a panel discussion featuring former law enforcement officers, an ex-offender, and policy and legal experts.

The panelists were:
Arthur Rizer, R Street Institute
Ed Chung, Center for American Progress (moderator)
