The John K. MacIver Institute for Public Policy is a Wisconsin-based think tank focused on free markets, individual freedom, personal responsibility, and limited government. Based in Madison, it positions itself within the public policy arena as an organization that develops ideas to influence state and national affairs, tracing its ethos to the legacy of John K. MacIver, who emphasized the power of ideas in politics and the potential for good government to align with good policy. The institute operates with a very small staff, and its activities include organizing public policy discourse and, as evidenced by recent developments, expanding its organizational reach through new initiatives such as a dedicated advocacy arm. In early 2024 the organization announced leadership changes and the launch of a new venture, signaling ongoing evolution in its strategic initiatives.
