A 'To-Do List' For Congress: Think Tank Urges Next Congress to Embrace Free-Market Vision on Health Care, Education, Energy


Offers Reform Ideas with Potential for Bipartisan Appeal

SACRAMENTO, Calif., Oct. 6, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- With the next Congress facing serious policy questions on health care, education, and energy, the nonpartisan Pacific Research Institute today released a "Congress To-Do List," a free-market policy reform agenda with bipartisan appeal to guide the next Congress -- regardless of which party wins control.

"PRI's policy experts have put together a robust to-do list of market-based policy solutions that will result in better schools, more affordable health care and more reliable energy supply -- common-sense ideas that have the potential to be embraced by Democrats and Republicans alike."

Building upon PRI's more than four decades of free-market research and analysis on health care, education, environmental, and economic policy, the "Congress To-Do Lists" offer actionable reforms that the new Congress can embrace upon taking office in January to address the nation's most urgent problems on health care, education, and energy.
