The Civic Caucus, a small Minnesota nonpartisan, nonprofit public-policy organization, works passionately to protect and carry on Minnesota's proud tradition of exploring the state's critical public-policy issues and solutions and debating them in an informed, nonpartisan fashion. An integral part of that tradition has been deeply committed citizens working together to learn, analyze and recommend solutions to critical public issues.Since 2005, the Civic Caucus interview panel - a group of dedicated volunteers with a wealth of public-policy experience and expertise - has conducted nearly 600 thoughtful interviews of civic and business leaders, innovators, elected officials, researchers, academics and other thought leaders.Detailed summary notes of all the interviews are distributed free of charge by e-mail to a list of over 6,800 civic-minded readers and nearly 300 media outlets statewide. The summary notes of all 600 interviews are available on the Civic Caucus website. The Civic Caucus has also produced over 20 position reports, also available on the website. Our e-mail list is updated regularly to include newly elected officials statewide, candidates for public office and any other people who wish to subscribe to the e-mails.
