The donor network created by the Koch brothers, consisting of political and advocacy groups backed by wealthy conservatives, is planning to get involved in the 2024 presidential primaries. This marks the first time the network has supported candidates in presidential primaries.
The move was discussed at a weekend conference in Palm Springs, California, where the network’s leaders laid out their goals for the election cycle. A memo, written by the CEO of the lead nonprofit group in the network, Americans for Prosperity, and sent to affiliated activists and donors, states that the network intends to turn the page on the past and nominate a new president who represents a new chapter. The memo did not mention any specific candidate.
The Koch network has historically been influential in American politics, having spent nearly $500 million in support of Republican candidates and policies in the 2020 election cycle. The outcome of the network’s involvement in the primaries remains to be seen.
