SW: IFJ is fighting against publically owned elections in AZ
In a addition to litigation, "the Institute [takes its cases] to the court of public opinion with a blitz of editorials and op-eds in leading local and national newspapers."[http://www.ij.org/publications/liberty/1997/l_9_97_e.html]
 
One of the target of the Institute is [[campaign finance reform]]. The Arizona chapter has filed a lawsuit challenging the "Clean Elections Act".
The initial funding for the Institute came from the [[Koch Family Foundations]], which also fund the libertarian [[Cato Institute]] and [[Citizens for a Sound Economy]]. The [[Walton Family Foundation]] also contributed money.
