The Rocky Mountain Political Law Institute is a educational nonprofit aiming to teach legal basics to activists around the country. 

We envision a country where widespread public knowledge of the law means political power no longer belongs to only those who can afford lawyers. 

As activists ourselves, we aim to deliver the information that other activists need to know about the First Amendment, ballot access, campaign finance, elections and voting, and forming and running organizations.

The RMPLI Mission

Our mission is to promote broad public participation in government decision making and the political process by educating the public about the mechanisms of political power.

The RMPLI Vision

We envision a country where widespread public knowledge of the law means political power no longer belongs to only those who can afford lawyers.
