Hiram Johnson Center for the Public Interest

The Center is a public policy think tank and briefing center that seeks to restore accountability and financial stability to government.

Hiram Johnson was a United States Senator and Governor of California, and perhaps most importantly the leader of the progressive reform movement in California to reform government to make it more responsive to the people in the early 1900s. In the spirit of Hiram Johnson, the Hiram Johnson Center for the Public Interest is a think tank and briefing center on important public policy and government reform issues. It is operated by the Kersten Institute for Governance & Public Policy.
