Texas Conservative Coalition Research Institute
ABOUT TCCRI
"As policymakers, we rely on the work of TCCRI to inform our decisions. Their policy research and development is second to none, and through their Task Forces and policy summits, they create an environment in which proposals can be discussed and fully vetted by policymakers and stakeholders alike."
— State Senator Phil King
OUR MISSION
The work of TCCRI is based upon four core principles: Limited Government, Individual Liberty, Free Enterprise and Traditional Values. Together, they form our LIFT principles and underpin all TCCRI Task Forces, conferences, and publications. Each principle guides our Board and Staff.
Limited Government
Individual Freedom
Free Enterprise
Traditional Values
OUR MISSION
TCCRI was founded in 1995 by conservative leaders determined to implement conservative public policies in state government. The organization was inspired by the success of the Texas Conservative Coalition (the conservative caucus in the Texas Legislature) that has served as a resource for information and public policy strategies for Texas legislators since 1985.
TCCRI has distinguished itself as a leading state-based think tank and has been very successful in living up to its mission of shaping public policy through a principled approach to government. Its research reports, Task Forces, and policy summits have been instrumental in generating proposals that are shaping Texas government and influencing a new generation of conservative leadership.
