Lexington Institute

The Lexington Institute is dedicated to advancing freedom, opportunity, and equality before the law for all men and women, in line with the revolutionary spirit that began in Lexington in 1775. By participating in the common ground of American democracy, the Institute aims to inform and shape public debate on national priorities, including national security, education reform, tax reform, immigration, and federal policy concerning science and technology. The Institute believes in limiting the role of the federal government to functions explicitly or implicitly defined by the Constitution, and actively opposes unnecessary intrusion into commerce and culture. Instead, the Institute promotes nongovernmental, market-based solutions to public-policy challenges, believing that a dynamic private sector is the greatest engine for social progress and economic prosperity.
