The secretive Democracy Alliance donor club is hoping its nearly $300 million in political spending this cycle will result in a new political leadership willing to advance liberal ideas such as the Green New Deal, a private and confidential document obtained by the Washington Free Beacon shows.
The document, "Vision for a Progressive America, and What's Needed to Get There," was distributed to Democracy Alliance partners at their spring donor conference in Texas earlier this month.
Among those objectives is the Green New Deal, the document states.
"A safe and sustainable planet would include a new president and Congress that are positioned in 2021 to advance bold actions, like a Green New Deal, that achieves dramatic reductions in greenhouse gas emissions while creating millions of jobs and reducing economic inequality," the document says.
The embrace of the Green New Deal by the influential donor group comes as the radical policy proposal divides Democrats.
Who has headlined Democracy Alliance events alongside billionaire member George Soros, has consistently written off the Green New Deal-as it was unveiled she referred to it as the "Green dream or whatever they call it."
The group of wealthy donors also wants "a reduction of the role of big money in politics," it says in the document.
