AR2, an issues-based 501(c)(4) organization dedicated to promoting conservative issues through cutting-edge research, aims to help shape the public policy debate across the country.

AR2 is a unique platform for in-depth research, targeted communications of points of view not now heard in the issues debate, and long-term projects that can impact public policy. At AR2, we combine issues research, field research, investigative research, rapid response to key developments in the issues debate, a “war room” to keep tabs on developments in that debate, and targeted communications to explain positions often ignored in the national discussion over key public policies.
