‘Billionaire’s Club’ Promoting Clean Energy With Freshly Laundered Money?

Senate report released this week claims that a large network of left-wing groups, non-profit organizations, and ultra wealthy individuals may be working together to illegally influence environmental public policy.

As reported by the Washington Free Beacon, the report details how tens of millions of dollars have been disbursed to sway elections and public policy toward the “green” agenda.

Money enters the network through three groups the report terms the “Billionaire’s Club”: the Environmental Grantmakers Association, the Democracy Alliance, and the “Invest/Divest movement.”

The network funnels money from “charitable” foundations, often through 501(c)(3) “educational” nonprofit groups, to activist organizations that attempt to influence legislation, elections, regulatory actions, or public perception on major environmental issues.

The club’s activities are frequently shielded from public scrutiny due to their use of non-profit tax designations that do not require the public disclosure of donors.
