Mission and Program Overview

Mission

Competitive enterprise institute (cei) is a non-profit public policy organization dedicated to the principles of free enterprise and limited government. We believe that consumers are best helped not by government regulation but by being allowed to make their own choices in a free marketplace.

Major Activities

Activity 2
Center for Economic FreedomCEI's Center for Economic Freedom works to ensure that voluntary economic transactions remain free from government coercion and control. The Center defends against attacks on these freedoms from bureaucrats and nanny-state busybodies, working to expand the orbit of voluntary arrangements in the economy - including banking and finance, labor and employment, insurance, the freedom to take risks as an entrepreneur or consumer, international trade and development, transportation, gaming, recreation, and many others. The Center aims for a world where the rights and benefits of free transactions are recognized, respected and protected.
Activity 3
Center for Energy, Environment and RiskCEI's Center for Energy and Environment makes the positive case for abundant energy and promotes environmental policies based on economic freedom, property rights, and limited government. The Center works to combat the belief that prosperity threatens the environment, that the answer to every environmental challenge is more regulation and that risks can be abolished by limiting human ingenuity.
