Our work
From working to keep lifesaving medicines effective, to driving a future of clean transportation, find out more about what we're working on, and how you can help.
MoPIRG is an advocate for the public interest. We speak out for the public and stand up to special interests on problems that affect the public’s health, safety and wellbeing.
All Americans want a healthier, safer, more secure future. MoPIRG works to find common ground around common sense solutions that will help make that future a reality. The problems we work on aren’t progressive or conservative. They’re just problems that our country shouldn’t tolerate in an age of great abundance and technological progress.
MoPIRG and our network of state organizations have a 50 year track record of bringing people together around solutions that work, and not stopping until we get real results.
We value ideas and policies that both improve the quality of our lives now and put us on a path to a better future.
For every issue we work on, we have a bold vision of how to transform our country. But we understand that change comes one step at a time, and often powerful interests are standing in the way. Our focus is on making a difference for the public, not just making a statement.
We’ve successfully advocated for changes that have resulted in more recycling and less waste, healthier and safer choices in the marketplace, and greater accountability in government.

Even in deeply divided moments, all Americans want a healthier, safer, more secure future. Our advocates build coalitions that include people from all walks of life.

Through coordinated action, pooled resources, and shared expertise PIRG staff across the country work together to make positive change. Meet the team.
