The Texas Public Policy Foundation (TPPF) is an American conservative think tank based in Austin, Texas.[3] The organization was co-founded in 1989 by James R. Leininger and Fritz S. Steiger, who sought intellectual support for his education reform ideas, including public school vouchers.[4] Projects of the organization include Right on Crime, which is focused on criminal justice reform,[5] and Fueling Freedom, which seeks to "explain the forgotten moral case for fossil fuels."[6]
