The Hoover Institution hosted “Decadence or Renewal? Envisioning Competent Government in America”, a workshop bringing together participants from across the political spectrum to develop an agenda to revive confidence that democratic government can actually work.
While much of the daily news coverage and debate centers around the actions of the federal government in Washington, D.C., much of the innovation and competence in American government is taking place at the local level. This panel, which includes current and former government officials and policy experts, will spotlight the innovations and success stories happening in towns, cities, and states across America. In these places, you can find a potential blueprint for how to restore government competence and rebuild public confidence in government.
