The North Dakota Economic Policy Project

The North Dakota Economic Policy Project was created to promote better understanding of the state budget and the crucial choices confronting the economic wellbeing of our state.

By illuminating fiscal problems and offering policies to address them, NDEPP aims to deepen the public conversation about budget issues in North Dakota. Our goal is to be a state where a growing, prosperous economy benefits all North Dakotans.

By providing North Dakota leaders, candidates, residents and the media with clear, unbiased information that explains the economic and budgetary realities of our state, North Dakotans will have an informed and accurate picture to aid them in making political and public policy choices.

The North Dakota Economic Policy Project (NDEPP) is non-profit and non-partisan.

WHAT'S NEW

The North Dakota Economic Policy Project's newest publication takes a look at North Dakota's budget; how it's created and how it is made up.

North Dakota Economic Policy Project co-released a new report that ranks North Dakota 49th in economic development accountability. The report by Good Jobs First, the nation's leading authority on economic development reform, reports that states lack sound, consistent policies to enforce job-creation and other performance requirements in economic development subsidy programs.
