Topics it addressed include reforms in health care, taxes, Social Security, welfare, education, and environmental regulation. The NCPA was founded in February 1983[4] and ceased operation in mid-2017, announcing it had faced three years of serious financial trouble.[5] An NCPA website is being maintained by a former board member at NCPAThinkTank.org [6]. Publications have been archived at www.ncpathinktank.org/pdfs [7]. A history of the organization and summary of its accomplishments may be found at Goodmaninstitute.org [8] HistoryNCPA was founded by British businessman Antony Fisher[9] together with Dallas businessmen Russell Perry (CEO of Republic Financial Services),[10] Wayne Calloway (CEO of Frito-Lay), John F. Stephens (CEO of Employers Insurance of Texas),[11] and Jere W. Thompson (CEO of the Southland Corporation). Its founding president was libertarian economist John C. Goodman. Its first offices were at the University of Dallas. The organization later had offices in Dallas and Washington, D.C..

A history of the organization and summary of its accomplishments may be found at Goodmaninstitute.org [14] In June 2014, the NCPA board and Goodman accused each other of misconduct and Goodman left the organization.[15] Leadership of the NCPA included:
Its first offices were at the University of Dallas. The organization later had offices in Dallas and Washington, D.C IssuesMedia attention focused on the NCPA (for example, U.S. News & World Report,[16] Ft. Lauderdale Sun-Sentinel,[17] Orange County Register[18]) for recommending pension reform legislation including automatic enrollment into companies' 401(k) plans. The NCPA was a member of the Cooler Heads Coalition, an organization created by the now-defunct non-profit group Consumer Alert that described itself as "an alliance of some two dozen non-profit public policy groups concerned about the implications of the Kyoto Protocol for consumers," and which was generally skeptical of anthropogenic global warming.[19] NCPA has also attempted to debunk peak oil claims.{{Citation needed|date=August 2010}} FundingNCPA's revenues for the fiscal year ending 9/30/14 were $5,281,913 against expenses of $4,544, 953;[20] for the fiscal year ending 9/30/10 were $4,222,403 against expenses of $5,888,951; for the fiscal year ending 9/30/09 were $4,222,403 against expenses of $7,569,793; for the fiscal year ending 9/30/08 they were revenues of $6,603,905 against expenses of $4,898,261.[21] As of November 2013, the organization's web site reported that for 2011 its funding breakdown was 52% from foundations, 21% from individuals and 22% from corporations.[22] The press release it issued in July 2017 announcing its dissolution attributed the Board's decision to cease operations immediately as necessitated by three years of financial difficulty.[5] According to Greenpeace, the NCPA received at least $570,000 from Koch Industries in the eleven-year period ending in 2008.[23] In 1992, the New York Times reported that the NCPA was partially funded by the insurance industry.[24] References1. ^{{cite web | last=Man | first=Anthony | title=It's goodbye for Allen West, who's leaving Florida | website=OrlandoSentinel.com | date=2014-11-10 | url=http://www.orlandosentinel.com/news/fl-allen-west-leaves-florida-20141110-story.html | access-date=2017-09-06}} 2. ^{{cite web | url=http://990s.foundationcenter.org/990_pdf_archive/751/751804932/751804932_201509_990.pdf | title=National Center for Policy Analysis | website=Foundation Center | accessdate=26 May 2017}} 3. ^{{cite news |author=Kolata, Gina |date=March 8, 1992 |title=The philosophical fight over what insurance should be |work=The New York Times |page=E5 |url=https://www.nytimes.com/1992/03/08/weekinreview/ideas-trends-the-philosophical-fight-over-what-insurance-should-be.html?pagewanted=all}} {{cite news |author=Jackson, David |date=August 1, 1993 |title=Pursuit of ideas primes research institute; Conservative Dallas organization is part of movement to shape national politics |work=The Dallas Morning News |page=37A |url=http://nl.newsbank.com/nl-search/we/Archives?p_product=DM&p_theme=dm&p_action=search&p_maxdocs=200&s_hidethis=no&p_field_label-0=Author&p_text_label-0=David%20Jackson&p_field_label-1=title&p_bool_label-1=AND&p_field_label-2=Section&p_bool_label-2=AND&s_dispstring=Pursuit%20of%20ideas%20primes%20research%20institute%20AND%20byline(David%20Jackson)%20AND%20date(08/01/1993%20to%2008/01/1993)&p_field_date-0=YMD_date&p_params_date-0=date:B,E&p_text_date-0=08/01/1993%20to%2008/01/1993)&p_field_advanced-0=&p_text_advanced-0=(Pursuit%20of%20ideas%20primes%20research%20institute)&p_perpage=10&p_sort=YMD_date:D&xcal_useweights=no}} {{cite news |author=Warsh, David |date=April 28, 1996 |title=MSAs a suicidal shoal for GOP |work=The Boston Globe |page=A97 |url=http://nl.newsbank.com/nl-search/we/Archives?p_product=BG&p_theme=bg&p_action=search&p_maxdocs=200&p_text_search-0=MSAs%20a%20suicidal%20shoal%20for%20GOP&s_dispstring=MSAs%20a%20suicidal%20shoal%20for%20GOP%20AND%20date(4/28/1996%20to%204/28/1996)&p_field_date-0=YMD_date&p_params_date-0=date:B,E&p_text_date-0=4/28/1996%20to%204/28/1996)&xcal_numdocs=20&p_perpage=10&p_sort=YMD_date:D&xcal_useweights=no}} {{cite news |author=McKee, Mary |date=January 20, 2001 |title=Bush tie may benefit Dallas-based group; The think tank president has advised the president-elect on health care issues |work=Fort Worth Star-Telegram |page=21 |url=http://nl.newsbank.com/nl-search/we/Archives?p_product=ST&p_theme=realcities2&p_action=search&p_maxdocs=200&s_site=dfw&s_trackval=ST&s_search_type=customized&s_dispstring=title(Bush%20tie%20may%20benefit%20Dallas-based%20group)%20AND%20date(01/20/2001%20to%2001/20/2001)&p_field_date-0=YMD_date&p_params_date-0=date:B,E&p_text_date-0=01/20/2001%20to%2001/20/2001)&p_field_advanced-0=title&p_text_advanced-0=(Bush%20tie%20may%20benefit%20Dallas-based%20group)&xcal_numdocs=20&p_perpage=10&p_sort=YMD_date:D&xcal_useweights=no}} 4. ^{{cite news |author=Miller, Robert |date=June 27, 1988 |title=Is it too early to anticipate a spin with the '88 rotogravure?
