The Institute is founded on the belief that free markets and individual liberty best serve the public interest by providing freedom of choice and equal opportunity. The Institute's articles on key policy issues appear regularly in major media publications such as *The Wall Street Journal*, *The Washington Post*, and *USA Today*. The Institute's analysts also appear on international and national television programs such as *The MacNeil/Lehrer News Hour*, *Good Morning America*, CNN's *Crossfire* and *Larry King Live*. CEI analysts can also be heard on numerous national and local radio shows across the country. The Institute's policy analysts concentrate on the following issue areas: ECONOMIC REGULATION We analyze the human and economic costs of government tax and regulatory policies. ENVIRONMENTAL STUDIES The Institute's work emphasizes the reinstatement of private incentive and accountability centering on enforcement of property rights and targeted liability for pollution. Environmental Education Project Production and distribution of materials that examine environmental issues based on the latest scientific and economic research. FREE MARKET LEGAL PROGRAM Launched in 1986, this program seeks to carry the battle for economic rights into the legal arena. Issues and cases are selected on the basis of their importance as policy and precedent and on the likelihood that the Institute can make a significant contribution. Some recent activities have addressed FDA reform, rent control, and Corporate Average Fuel Economy standards (CAFE). "Death by Regulation" project Aimed at shifting the policy debate toward market-based approaches to risk management. It attempts to do so not through conventional policy analysis, but by focusing on previously unrecognized victims of regulatory failure. In particular, the project demonstrates that risk management by government can often have lethal effects.
