Freedom Partners Chamber of Commerce

Update 9/17/21: Stand Together Chamber of Commerce, replaced the Koch network's Freedom Partners, aka Freedom Partners Chamber of Commerce (previously the Association for American Innovation), which folded in May 2019. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Freedom Partners Chamber of Commerce, unlike the super PAC, is registered as a 501(c)6 trade association, a section of the Tax Code that allows groups to shield donors’ names. It initially acted as something of a bank for the Koch network, mostly writing grants to other groups to air ads or mobilize activists around small-government, free-market issues. But Freedom Partners, which doled out $236 million in grants in 2012, is playing an increasingly larger role, including airing its own ads, as the Koch network moves to centralize its political operations.
