Scott Walter’s Testimony Before the House Ways and Means CommitteeWritten Statement: HTML or PDFOral Testimony: Video (below) and HTMLFull Committee Hearing (House website)Oral TestimonyTo House Ways and MeansSubcommittee on OversightRep. David Schweikert, ChairmanScott WalterPresident, Capital Research CenterDecember 13, 2023Chairmen Smith and Schweikert, Ranking Member Pascrell, distinguished members of the Subcommittee, thank you for the honor of testifying. I’m excited to be asked to discuss foreign money in American nonprofits, because in our deeply polarized world, foreign money in our politics is opposed by nearly everyone—left, right, and center. My written testimony carefully documents this foreign billionaire’s meddling in America citing only mainstream media sources—the New York Times, Politico, and the Associated Press—plus the Federal Election Commission’s general counsel. The lines governing the districts you represent may have been carved in part by foreign money. Surely we can all agree this is not the role of foreign billionaires.
