More about the Institute for Justice's SR Team: IJ’s Strategic Research team creates social science and policy research, but our studies don’t just sit on a library shelf collecting dust. We put our research to work by combining it with IJ’s unique brand of cutting-edge litigation, award-winning communications and top-notch activism and legislative outreach. Our studies have been cited by the White House and the U.S. Supreme Court , as well as leading outlets nationwide. Our work has helped certify a victorious class action lawsuit against Philadelphia’s civil forfeiture machine , ensure the return of cash wrongfully seized by the IRS, roll back needless occupational licensing , dismantle speech-squelching campaign finance laws , and protect programs that empower parents to choose the best schools for their children.
