Preserving Freedom and Mobility

May 16, 2008

The American Dream Coalition presents the 2008 conference on Preserving the American Dream “Preserving Freedom and Mobility”

Are so-called “smart-growth” planners threatening your property rights? Are wasteful rail transit projects eating away your tax dollars? Then don’t miss the Preserving the American Dream conference in Houston on May 16-18, 2008.

This is the only national conference focusing on free-market and property-rights solutions to land-use and transportation problems. You will meet with dozens of international experts on housing affordability, mobility, zoning, and congestion. Special sessions will cover such topics as global warming, peak oil, the reconstruction of New Orleans, rail transit, and changing zoning into covenants.

Conference-goers can also take an optional tour of Houston showing how a major city can protect livability without zoning. The conference is cosponsored by the Cato Institute, Reason Foundation, Independence Institute, and a variety of other groups.

For more information, including a list of confirmed speakers and how to register, see Preserving Freedom and Mobility conference information page.
