Protecting American Democracy
You may have heard us on radio, TV, at the Osher Institute for Lifelong Learning or at your local civic organizations. Why not invite us to speak to your organization?

The Saving Democracy Institute

As part of our focus on educating citizens and providing objective, accurate and useful information about American democracy, we’re launching programs on how government and democracy affect you and your wallet and freedoms.

Our major initiative is the Saving Democracy Institute, an exciting new think tank for the “ordinary” voter. Why? Because we know that voters who are informed and involved are far from ordinary–They are a pro-democracy force to be reckoned with in a political system like ours.
