Iowa PIRG Education Fund conducts research, policy analysis and public education to advance solutions to problems that affect consumers’ health, safety and well-being.
Iowa PIRG Education Fund spotlights the problems that affect consumers’ health, safety and well-being, advances practical solutions, and promotes dialogue about how to elevate the quality of our lives over the quantity of “stuff” we consume.
All Americans benefit from a marketplace that’s more honest and transparent, and a society that’s healthier, safer and more sustainable. Whether it’s highlighting the overuse of antibiotics in agriculture, offering solutions to our country’s plastic waste crisis, or educating the public on ways we can reduce electronic waste, Iowa PIRG Education Fund’s work is neither progressive nor conservative. Our research and public education highlight problems that our country shouldn’t tolerate in an age of great abundance and technological progress. And our policy analysts point to practical solutions to these problems.
From how to keep lifesaving medicines effective, make more consumer products reusable, repairable and recyclable, keep toxic pollution from our water and communities, and more, we’re finding ways to protect consumers and advance the public interest.
Even in deeply divided moments, all Americans want a healthier, safer, more secure future for themselves and their children. Iowa PIRG Education Fund spotlights the problems that threaten that future and offers solutions that are both practical and transcend political divisions.
