Senate Minority Staff Report, Billionaire Environmental Foundation Funding
A Senate Environment and Public Works Committee minority report titled "The Chain of Environmental Command" details how a "Billionaire's Club" of foundations influences EPA policy. The report names organizations such as the Sea Change Foundation, the Hewlett Foundation, and the Packard Foundation as major donors to the green movement. The hosts criticize the report's branding and timing but acknowledge the extensive research into foreign funding and 501(c)(3) networks.
