Founded in 1985, the Independence Institute is a non-profit organization dedicated to educating Coloradans about the virtues of the free market and the vices of unchecked government power.  Its research and educational objectives range from health and education policy, to Second Amendment rights, fiscal responsibility and government regulation.  In the area of fiscal policy, the Institute advocates lower taxes and less government spending.  It has been a outspoken advocate for Colorado’s Taxpayer Bill of Rights (TABOR).
