Facts matter. We hear that now more than ever before, but for over 109 years, it has been the North Star of the Citizens Research Council. We are dedicated to securing a responsible, accountable, and representative government for the citizens of Michigan. We strive to be the trusted source of fact-based, non-biased research provided without spin.

Founded in 1916, the Citizens Research Council of Michigan provides factual, unbiased, independent information concerning significant issues of state and local government organization, policy, and finance. By delivery of this information to policymakers and citizens, including the assessment of both intended and unintended consequences of public policy, the Research Council aims to ensure sound and rational public policy formation in Michigan.
When the dust settles, the Citizens Research Council will be here to keep a critical eye on our elected leaders and public policy makers to ensure their policies are efficient, cost effective and thoughtful for Michigan’s citizens.
