The Chamber has repeatedly sent out issue alerts attacking Democratic efforts to encourage businesses to hire locally rather than outsource to foreign counties. The Chamber has also bitterly fought Democrats for opposing unfettered free trade deals.
Government Takeover by Foreign Corporations?
Ironic that the tea party types are hysterically afraid because of some myth concocted by Republican operatives that the U.S. has been taken over by Muslim, socialist, foreign-born Barack Obama. As we see from these developments, it sure looks like our government is actually in danger of being taken over by right-wing candidates supported by organizations with funding from foreign corporations -- even those that are controlled by foreign governments. I wonder if the Albuquerque Journal or the TV news boys will cover any aspect of this story. I won't hold my breath.

The largest attack campaign against Democrats this fall is being
waged by the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, a trade association organized as a
501(c)(6) that can raise and spend unlimited funds without ever
disclosing any of its donors. The Chamber has promised to spend an
unprecedented $75 million to defeat candidates like Jack Conway , Sen. Barbara Boxer (D-CA), Jerry Brown , Rep. Joe Sestak (D-PA), and Rep. Tom Perriello 8,000
ads on behalf of GOP Senate candidates alone, according to a study from
the Wesleyan Media Project. The Chamber?s spending has dwarfed every
other issue group and most political party candidate committee spending.
With each of these foreign board members to the USBBC contributing at least
$10,000 annually, the U.S. Chamber of Commerce raises well over $100,000 a year in money from foreign businesses through its operation in Bahrain. Notably, the membership form provided by the USBBC directs applicants to send or wire
their money directly to the U.S. Chamber of Commerce. The membership
form also explicitly states that the foreign-owned firms are welcomed.

During the worst of the economic crisis, the nation's most powerful business lobby pleaded with Congress to prop up financial institutions and stimulate the economy with hundreds of billions of dollars in borrowed money.
