The Massachusetts Institute of Technology worked to kill a proposal that would bring additional scrutiny to large foreign donations.

It found an ally in the White House, too, according to Just the News.

The revelation of MIT’s lobbying several years ago came via recently obtained public records.
Just the News reported:

Federal watchdog Protect the Public’s Trust obtained communications between MIT’s David Goldston, a Capitol Hill veteran who served as House Science Committee chief of staff 20 years ago, and Office of Science and Technology Policy leaders from 2021 through a Freedom of Information Act request, and shared them with Just the News.
