Liberal dark money group 1630 Fund's election wishlist boosted by Swiss billionaire
Fox News
Swiss billionaire Hansjorg Wyss appears to have helped liberal organizations, including dark money group the Sixteen Thirty Fund, check off their election policy wishlist.
The Wyss Foundation's advocacy arm, the Berger Action Fund, gave more than $135 million to the Sixteen Thirty Fund between 2016 and 2020, according to a New York Times report on Wyss. Closely related to Wyss and the Sixteen Thirty Fund is the Hub Project, a behind-the-scenes group helping progressives that is under the umbrella of the Sixteen Thirty Fund and New Venture Fund, another group that has received millions from the Wyss Foundation. The Wyss Foundation is one of the main donors of the Hub Project, which distributed funds from the Sixteen Thirty Fund to state-level groups ahead of the 2018 midterm elections that gave Democrats control of the House of Representatives, according to the New York Times.More Related News
