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.

 

Join us for PRI’s second annual California “Ideas in Action” Policy Conference and hear policy experts, opinion leaders, and real life changemakers at informative panel discussions on:

• 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
