Institute for Justice

Mission

Through strategic litigation, training, communication, and outreach, the Institute for Justice advances a rule of law under which individuals can control their destinies as free and responsible members of society. IJ litigates to secure economic liberty, school choice, private property rights, freedom of speech, and other vital individual liberties and to restore constitutional limits on the power of government. In addition, IJ trains law students, lawyers, and activists in the tactics of public interest litigation. Through these activities, IJ illustrates and extends the benefits of freedom to those whose full enjoyment of liberty is denied by government.

Vision

To build a rule of law in America under which individuals can control their destinies as free and responsible citizens.

Goals

1.Through public interest litigation, establish legal precedent that allows individuals to pursue their dreams free of undue government obstacles or abuses of power.
2.Through communications, advocacy, and research, raise public awareness and support for our pillars of a free and just society: economic liberty, property rights, educational choice, and free speech.
3.Encourage an engaged judiciary, where judges exercise their role as checks on the executive and legislative branches, grapple with a case’s facts, and do not simply defer to other government bodies.
