Koch has the money and engineering prowess to help develop ASN and excellent political contacts throughout all levels of the US government. This is something that I see to be a huge green tick.Political activity
[edit]Fred C. Koch was a founder of the anti-communist John Birch Society in 1958.[122] His son, Charles Koch, who has been co-owner, chairman, and chief executive officer of Koch Industries, co-founded the Cato Institute. The company also funds the political action committee KochPAC.
According to OpenSecrets, many of Koch Industries' contributions have gone toward achieving legislation on taxes, energy and nuclear power, defense appropriations and financial regulatory reform.[123] Koch Industries has been criticized by the environmentalist group Greenpeace for the role the company played in affecting climate change policy in the United States.[124][125]
Prior to 2008, a Canadian subsidiary of Koch Industries contributed to the Fraser Institute, a conservative Canadian public policy think tank, according to the Institute's founder.[126]
The company has opposed the regulation of financial derivatives, limits on greenhouse gases,[42] and sponsors free market foundations and causes.[127][128] Koch Industries has also come out against Low Carbon Fuel Standards.[129] According to Koch Industries, "LCFS would cripple refiners that rely on heavy crude feedstocks to provide the transportation fuels that keep America moving."[130]
Charles Koch penned a Wall Street Journal op-ed column titled "Why Koch Industries is Speaking Out."[131] The article states: "Because of our activism, we've been vilified by various groups. Despite this criticism, we're determined to keep contributing and standing up for those politicians, like Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker, who are taking these challenges [deficit spending by governments] seriously."
According to the watchdog group Documented, in 2020 Koch Industries contributed $375,000 to the Rule of Law Defense Fund, a fund-raising arm of the Republican Attorneys General Association.[132]
