The Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression (FIRE) is dedicated to defending and sustaining the individual rights of all Americans to free speech and free thought, which are fundamental to liberty. Based in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and Washington, D.C., FIRE educates the public on the importance of these inalienable rights, promotes a culture of respect for them, and provides resources to help preserve them. The organization operates on a hybrid work schedule, allowing for a mix of in-office and remote work, and is committed to fostering a diverse and inclusive workplace.
