NEWSLETTERS, MAILINGS, AND EVENTS ARE ALL CRITICAL TO BOTH EDUCATION AND ENGAGEMENT. NEWSLETTERS PROVIDE SUMMARIES ON IMPORTANT AND TOPICAL ISSUES. EVENTS ARE HELD TO COINCIDE WITH POLICY PUBLICATIONS AND ARE HELD WHEN TOPICS RISE TO THE LEVEL OF PUBLIC INTEREST. KEYNOTE SPEAKERS, RANGING FROM ELECTED OFFICIALS TO LOCAL AND NATIONAL SUBJECT EXPERTS, ARE JOINED BY PANELISTS REPRESENTING DIVERSE VIEWS. 287701 AS A THINK TANK, POLICY RESEARCH ON COMPLEX ISSUES IS CORE TO THE OPERATIONS OF THE INSTITUTE. THIS INCLUDES ACTIVE STUDIES OF CURRENT AND HISTORICAL ACADEMIC RESEARCH, PROPOSED LEGISLATION IN UTAH - THE REGION - AND NATIONALLY. COLLABORATION WITH OTHER THINK TANKS, ISSUES-ORIENTED ORGANIZATIONS AND EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS, IS PART OF THE PROCESS AS WELL. THE INSTITUTE MONITORS SOCIAL AND LEGISLATIVE EFFORTS THAT THREATEN TO LIMIT FREE MARKET FUNCTION, RELIGIOUS LIBERTY, AND THE PRIORITIZATION OF FAMILIES. POTENTIAL LIMITATIONS ARE OFTEN EMBEDDED IN SEEMINGLY UNRELATED OR NEBULOUS LEGISLATION, WHICH NECESSITATES A CAREFUL AND ONGOING WATCH OF PRIORITY AREAS. 51168 THE INSTITUTE STAFFS POLICY EXPERTS WHO ARE ALSO REGISTERED LOBBYISTS. THE INSTITUTE REPORTS ITS LOBBYING ACTIVITIES TO THE IRS USING THE EXPENDITURES TEST UNDER A SECTION 501(H) ELECTION. QUALIFIED AND DESIGNATED STAFF ATTEND LEGISLATIVE SESSIONS, INTERIM SESSIONS, AND SPECIAL SESSIONS AT CAPITOL HILL IN UTAH, AND, AT TIMES, IN WASHINGTON DC. LOBBYISTS ARE AVAILABLE TO TESTIFY ON THE FLOOR AND BEFORE COMMITTEES AND SUB-COMMITTEES, MEET WITH LEGISLATORS, AND DETERMINE AREAS OF NEED WITH RESPECT TO THE HISTORY AND IMPLICATIONS OF PENDING LEGISLATION. COMMUNICATIONS ARE SHARED ON A NONPARTISAN BASIS THROUGH PRINTED PUBLICATIONS, FLIERS AND EMAILS. THE INSTITUTE CAN PROVIDE POLICY RESEARCH AT A DEPTH AND SCOPE THAT IS DIFFICULT TO OBTAIN OTHERWISE FOR MEMBERS OF A PART-TIME LEGISLATURE. 652809 true true false true false false false false false false true false false true true true true false false false false false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true 5 0 true 11 true false false false false false false false false false false false false X 8 8 false false false false false false false true true false false true true true true true true true false false UT X BRENDA CHAMBERLAIN 8103551272 15 WEST SOUTH TEMPLE STE 200 SALT LAKE CITY UT 84101 RICK LARSEN PRESIDENT & 60.00 X 206317 0 24514 DEREK MONSON VP - POLICY 40.00 X 128372 0 28536 STANLEY RASMUSSEN VP- GOV'T AF 40.00 X 112470 0 21823 BRENT ANDREWSEN BOARD MEMBER 0.25 X 0 0 0 FRANTZ BELOT BOARD MEMBER 0.25 X 0 0 0 CHASE HALE BOARD MEMBER 0.25 X 0 0 0 BRAD HARR BOARD MEMBER 0.25 X 0 0 0 JOE KERRY BOARD MEMBER 0.25 X 0 0 0 BRENT MCKINLEY BOARD MEMBER 0.25 X 0 0 0 GREG MILLER BOARD MEMBER 0.25 X 0 0 0 JOHN SPERRY BOARD MEMBER 0.25 X 0 0 0 447159 74873 3 false true false 2140998 2140998 CIVICS EVENTS 900099 25000 25000 25000 1738 1738 2167736 25000 1738 230832 112976 78718 39138 592370 289924 202009 100437 8252 4039 2814 1399 88907 43513 30319 15075 62230 30457 21222 10551 20375 20375 27000 25500 1500 5976 2925 2038 1013 18275 18275 24868 16222 8646 13008 12777 231 130773 5594 125179 8420 8420 9907 9907 OPERATIONS 105254 47893 57035 326 EVENT AND RECEPTIONS 98309 34294 515 63500 1444756 652809 560508 231439 456332 168953 1081 1002019 10000 80000 14000 8854 137987 105701 16289 32286 368264 497702 1660376 195842 132939 24062 366478 219904 499417 X -38317 -45001 316115 1205960 277798 1160959 497702 1660376 722980 160181 X false true X false false X 2046434 2828425 588252 1430169 2140998 9034278 2046434 2828425 588252 1430169 2140998 9034278 5119942 3914336 22 1506 912 1738 4178 9114 4382 13496 9051952 67876 0.43240 0.51050 X PART II, LINE 10 13,496 RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 51168 51168 1393588 1444756 219476 54869 230469 223628 219391 219476 892964 1339446 68055 50326 43558 51168 213107 57617 55907 54848 54869 223241 334862 137987 105701 32286 32286 OPERATING LEASE RIGHT-OF-USE ASSET 350495 FINANCE LEASE RIGHT-OF-USE ASSET 10403 RENTAL SECURITY DEPOSIT 7366 368264 OPERATING LEASE 356013 CAPITAL LEASE 10465 366478 X 2327917 160181 160181 2167736 2167736 1444756 1444756 1444756 SCHEDULE D, PAGE 3, PART X THE INSTITUTE ACCOUNTS FOR UNCERTAIN TAX POSITIONS, IF ANY, WHEN IT IS MORE-LIKELY-THAN-NOT THE POSITION WILL NOT BE SUSTAINED UPON EXAMINATION BY TAX AUTHORITIES.
