Bipartisan Policy Center
http://www.bipartisanpolicy.org
The Bipartisan Policy Center is a non-profit organization that was established in 2007 by former Senate Majority Leaders Howard Baker, Tom Daschle, Bob Dole and George Mitchell to provide a forum where tough policy challenges can be addressed in a pragmatic and politically viable manner. We seek to develop policy solutions that make sense for the nation and can be embraced by both parties. After reaching shared solutions through principled compromise, we will then work to implement these policies through the political system.
