The Supreme Court’s campaign finance ruling shows why states need a voice
State or national laws addressing campaign finance are made by legislators but are inevitably challenged in court and resolved after a time by judges. Whatever one thinks about the specific resolutions, our nation needs a robust debate about whether that is the best approach. Perhaps elected officials, particularly at the state level, should have more say.
Our mission is to equip Americans to advance principled public policy that promotes the constitutional values of faith, family and freedom. Our vision is that Utah is recognized as the best state in the nation for successfully applying America’s founding principles to the policy challenges of the day. And that reputation is supported by Sutherland Institute as the premier institutional voice – “making sound ideas broadly popular” – in Utah and beyond.
Sutherland Institute is a nonpartisan policy and educational institution – a think tank – that informs the public and policymakers alike. Our mission is to advance principled public policy that promotes the Constitutional values of faith, family and freedom and remains true to the belief that every generation must recommit to the principles that make us free.
