Think Tanks Partner to Solve US Debt Crisis

A group of well-connected think tanks and former Members of Congress have been holding a series of meetings in order to raise awareness of the US's growing and unsustainable debt.  The effort is called Strengthening of America - Our Children's Future.

The effort is a joint project of the following think tanks and organizations:

• The Concord Coalition
• The Bipartisan Policy Center
• The Center for Strategic and Interantional Studies
• The American Business Conference
• The James A. Baker III Institute for Public Policy at Rice University.
• The Hoover Institution at Stanford
• Harvard’s Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs
  
• Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars

The Steering Committee for the effort includes more than 30 former Members of Congress.

Strengthening of America - Our Children's Future, is also working closely and coordinating with:

• The Campaign to Fix the Debt
• The Comeback America Initiative
• The Peter G. Peterson Foundation (PGPF)
