The Calvin Coolidge Presidential Foundation, formed in 1960, is the official foundation dedicated to preserving the legacy and advancing the values of America’s 30th president. The Foundation is headquartered at the President’s birthplace in Plymouth Notch, Vermont, and has a second office at Coolidge House in Washington, D.C. The Foundation operates a number of programs on a national scale that seek to share Coolidge’s legacy and values, some of which include: hard work, restrained government, thrift, bipartisanship, respect for free enterprise, federalism, the rule of law, and civility. Coolidge, a small town attorney, devoted his life to the study of Constitutional law. The quality of his speeches on the Constitution has earned him the nickname “Modern Bridge to the Founders.” The Foundation is not a federally-funded presidential library, and depends on private fundraising for its operations. An overview of the Foundation’s work is available via its most recent Foundation Report, available here: https://coolidgefoundation.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/2023-Annual-Report-Web-File.pdf.
Strategic Research Manager – Pacific Legal Foundation – Virtual Office
You: A nimble and people-focused researcher seeking to elevate research to promote freedom and dismantle policies that trample individual liberties. In this role you get to manage PLF’s strategic research on separation of powers issues. This entails developing a strategy for which projects are most important, driving and co-authoring short publications, and commissioning long-form research from external scholars.
Them: Bureaucrats, city councils, mayors, governors, and federal agencies are stripping Americans of their rights every day. There’s a lot of government overreach out there, and it’s backed by seemingly endless resources and imperfect data. But fortunately, like all lumbering giants, abusive government is most vulnerable when countered by individuals who act strategically and nimbly, take calculated risks, have each other’s backs, and are confident in and passionate for the cause—the very sort of swashbucklers we employ in spades here at PLF.
Us: We fight back. Pacific Legal Foundation is the nation’s first and most successful public interest law firm dedicated to vindicating individual liberty through enduring legal change.
