R Street Institute (original) (raw)

The R Street Institute is an American non-partisan think tank headquartered in Washington, D.C. The Institute's stated mission is to "engage in policy research and outreach to promote free markets and limited, effective government." R Street was established in 2012 when its founders split from the Heartland Institute out of disagreement with Heartland's public denial of the scientific consensus on climate change. In addition to its Washington headquarters, R Street has branch offices in Tallahassee, Florida; Columbus, Ohio; Sacramento, California; Boston, Massachusetts; and Round Rock, Texas.
