The 2020 California Vision:
How Free Market Ideas Can Address the New Decade’s Major Challenges

As California enters a new decade, policymakers should look to the free market for solutions to the issues shaping up as the state’s major challenges over the next ten years – health care, entrepreneurship and the future of work, homelessness, and education.

• Preventing Future Power Outages, Wildfires Through the Governor’s Executive Powers
• Breaking Down Barriers to Opportunity
• School Choice as a Tool to Help Special Needs Students Beat the Odds
• Homelessness in California

 

Keynote Speaker:  The Hon. Janice Rogers Brown

Former Judge, U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit
