IU Policy Choices for Indiana's Future

The goal of Policy Choices is to start a discussion among government, nonprofit, and private sector leaders, and to provide options for action in three areas — Education and Workforce Development, Energy and the Environment, and State and Local Tax Policy. An overview of the project and the reports of the commissions are available now.
