The Arkansas Policy Foundation (APF) is a conservative think tank based in Little Rock, Arkansas.[4] According to APF, the organization "emphasizes the importance of tax policy and education reform."[5]

Activities

From 1996-1999, APF crafted a detailed review of state government known as the Murphy Commission report.[1] The organization has issued recommendations on education reform, ethics reform, and health care. It has proposed tax and spending cuts, including a reduction in sales taxes applied to groceries.[6][7] In December 2015, Arkansas Governor Asa Hutchinson requested that APF conduct another efficiency review in order to take a statewide look at governmental efficiency.[8]
