Freedom Foundation

The Freedom Foundation is a Washington-state based anti-worker organization funded by out of state billionaires who want to undermine the middle-class by cutting the minimum wage, getting rid of paid sick days, and taking away the voices of workers in their workplace. The foundation is closely linked with the controversial American Legislative Exch... ange Council (ALEC) which helped write and promote extremist "model bills" ranging from anti-immigrant SB 1070 in Arizona to a range of bills to dismantle voting rights and slash environmental protections. The Freedom Foundation engages in legal and public relations campaigns against labor organizations, their workers, and the middle class values they represent. The Freedom Foundation's donors include several organizations with deep ties to the Koch Brothers. The Foundation also has financial ties to other groups like the Searle Foundation and the Murdock Charitable Trust that have a history of funding an extremist agenda. Organizations like the Freedom Foundation call themselves "think tanks" and operate as non-profits, but in reality serve primarily as front groups for extremist donors who oppose raising the minimum wage, quality education, paid sick leave, LGBT rights, and women's reproductive rights. The Northwest Accountability Project is working to expose The Freedom Foundation's mission and its network of hatred and extremism. The Freedom Foundation must reveal their true agenda and stop lying to the public. It is time to tell the Koch Brothers, the Murdock Charitable Trust, the Freedom Foundation and their allies that their extremist agenda is not welcome in the Northwest.
