MADISON, Wis. - Former House Speaker Paul Ryan has launched a new non-profit organization he says will be focused on fighting poverty, increasing economic opportunities and advancing evidence-based public policies. Ryan announced the launch of the American Idea Foundation on Monday. He moved more than $7 million from his congressional account into the non-profit when he announced its formation earlier this year. Ryan moved his family from Janesville to Maryland earlier this year. Ryan decided against seeking re-election last year, ending his 20-year career in the House.
