Platte Institute for Economic Research
The Platte Institute for Economic Research is a free market think tank headquartered in Omaha, Nebraska. According to the organization, it is "dedicated to improving the quality of life for all citizens of Nebraska by advancing sensible, well-researched solutions to state and local economic policy issues."〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.platteinstitute.org/about )〕 The Institute's research areas include tax and economic policy, education policy, and healthcare policy.
==Overview==
The organization was established in 2007 by Pete Ricketts, who was later elected governor of Nebraska. As of 2015, its CEO was Jim Vokal.
In 2008, it released a study in partnership with Creighton University that showed Nebraska was the 8th most taxed state in the United States, a fact detrimental to its economy. In 2009, it commissioned a study about the cost of health care by Arduin, Laffer & Moore Econometrics. Also in 2009, the organization released a policy study which recommended reducing the number of Nebraska's counties, which stands at 93, as an administrative cost-saving measure. In 2010, it commissioned a report on charter schools in Nebraska by the Pacific Research Institute (PRI). In 2011, it commissioned another report by the PRI to promote virtual schools in Nebraska. In 2011, the organization argued that proposed changes to the Nebraska Commission of Industrial Relations would not substantially reduce government spending.
