The Koch network is investing in university programs across the country, and the Charles Koch Foundation has a history of using its university donations to buy influence over hiring decisions, curriculum, and research on campus.
The Graduate School of Public and International Affairs (GSPIA) at the University of Pittsburgh has announced a new “Center for Governance and Markets,” funded by The Charles Koch Foundation. Plans for this center have been intentionally kept secret due to the highly controversial nature of the funding.
Charles Koch himself admits that these university programs are critical to producing the ideas that support the Koch network’s anti-democratic political agenda, which often favors policies that uphold white supremacy and strip the public of our voting rights, access to healthcare, and regulations that protect workers and our environment.
The center’s unethical genesis, as well as its corrupt funding from the Charles Koch Foundation, have moved us to stand together and demand that GSPIA retract its plans for the Center for Governance and Markets and implement policies to protect the University of Pittsburgh from future donor interference.
Don’t let the University of Pittsburgh become the next cog in the Koch Network's political machine.
