Citizens For A Sound EconomyCitizens for a Sound Economy (CSE) is a conservative political group operating in the United States, whose self-described mission is "to fight for less government, lower taxes, and less regulation." The group produces more than 100 policy papers each year, delivering them to many congressional offices, sending out thousands of pieces of mail, and getting coverage of its viewpoints in thousands of news articles around the nation. The group's representatives have appeared on hundreds of radio and television shows and published hundreds op-ed articles arguing that "environmental conservation requires a commonsense approach that limits the scope of government," acid rain is a "so-called threat that is largely nonexistent," and global warming is "a verdict in search of evidence." Funding The CSE has a related funding arm, the Citizens for a Sound Economy Foundation (CSEF). According to internal documents leaked to the Washington Post, 85 percent of CSE's 1998 revenues of CSE's $16.2 million came not from its 250,000 members, but from contributions of $250,000 and up from large corporations. Between 1985 and 2001, CSE received $15,993,712 in 104 separate grants from only twelve foundations: Other CSE funders (not included in above funding total) have included: See also External links
