2026 TCCRI POLICY FORUM
The 90th Legislature will mark almost 30 years of conservative governance in Texas. Our ninth biennial Policy Forum will focus on how to continue the policies that have made Texas the nation’s economic leader and the best state to live, work, and raise a family. The event will be held over lunch with an address by Scott Jennings followed by a legislative panel discussion.

TASK FORCES
TCCRI uses its Task Force model to guide its policy research, bringing together legislators and public and private sector leaders to address critical state issues. During each legislative interim, issue-specific Task Forces, chaired by Texas House and Senate members, develop policy recommendations for the upcoming session. These recommendations are published in final reports ahead of the session, with the 2024 Task Forces preparing for the 89th Texas Legislature convening in January 2025.
CLEMENTS LEGISLATIVE
STUDY PROGRAM
TCCRI is cultivating the next generation of conservative leaders through its internship program. Founded in 2009, the Clements Legislative Study Program is a project of TCCRI that gives conservative college students the opportunity to learn about public policy development up close and firsthand as interns at the Texas Capitol. The Program is one the most prestigious and largest of its kind in Texas. Each Texas legislative session, TCCRI places scholars in the office of a state legislator. TCCRI has concluded it 2025 cohort and will begin recruiting for the 2027 class in the spring of next year.
