Public Citizen is a non-profit, consumer rights advocacy group and think tank based in Washington, D.C., United States, with a branch in Austin, Texas. ==Lobbying efforts== Public Citizen advocates before all three branches of the United States federal government.〔 Its five divisions include: Congress Watch; Energy; Global Trade Watch; the Health Research Group; and Public Citizen Litigation Group, a nationally prominent public interest law firm founded by Alan Morrison and known for its Supreme Court and appellate practice.〔(Courting Change: The Story of the Public Citizen Litigation Group )〕 Broadly speaking, Public Citizen favors robust corporate accountability and strong government regulation, particularly in the areas of transport, healthcare, and nuclear power. The organization's priorities range from campaign finance reform to drug and auto safety and financial reform. The unifying theme is an effort to curb the impact of corporate power on American democracy.〔 Public Citizen's pro-regulatory stance has been criticized by the U.S. Chamber of Commerce.
