Mission

The Institute for Sound Public Policy (IfSPP) solves big problems through advocacy and activism. Success will flow from our effort to achieve sound public policy through activism and litigation. We are not a think tank. Rather, we partner with a broad spectrum of activists to formulate and implement sound public policy at all levels of government. We will accomplish our mission by taking direct action that combats the negative effects of globalization. Specifically, we will focus on the: Movement of People – Overall immigration numbers, legal or illegal, impact working families and our natural environment. We advocate for measures that end illegal immigration so decisions on legal immigration have meaning. We advocate for legal immigration criteria that stabilize population, increase both per capita GDP and median income, and protect our natural resources. Movement of Capital – Ensure that friction is applied to the capital flows that fuel offshoring of good paying manufacturing jobs and key technologies. Movement of Goods – For decades U.S. production and worker wages have been harmed by ever growing trade deficits. We promote policy that systematically forces balanced and reciprocal trade. Building a Resilient Domestic Economy – Prioritize creation of private sector jobs that provide living wages and growth opportunities over government subsidies.
