Stance on Climate Change
Adam Meyerson does not appear to have taken a public stance on climate change. He has mentioned climate change in the context of protecting dark money donations.
Adam Meyerson is the chairman of Donors Capital Fund, which together with is sister organization, DonorsTrust, has been among the most prolific distributors of โdark moneyโ to the climate change denial movement in the United States.13Graham Readfearn. โExclusive: Major Climate Denial Funders Donors Trust and Donors Capital Fund Handled $479 Million Of Dark Money,โ DeSmog, May 12, 2015.
Stance on School Vouchers
In a January 1999 piece for Policy Review, Adam Meyerson supported school vouchers:14Adam Meyerson. โA Model of Cultural Leadership,โ Policy Review, January 1, 1999. Archived April 12, 2019. Archive.fo URL: https://archive.fo/76Vs0
โThe architects of the private voucher movement realize something that all too many conservatives have inexplicably forgotten in the 1990s: America is a free country. You do not have to wait for the politicians to advance a conservative reform agenda. You can take leadership into your own hands. You can create the institutions that will reshape the political and cultural landscape: the politicians will respond.
[…]
โThe privately-funded voucher movement is building a powerful constituency for school choiceโblack and Hispanic parents.
[โฆ]
โWhen parents have to scrimp and save to pay tuition, they think of education as an investment. They take charge. They pay attention to whether they are getting their moneyโs worth, to what school will be best for their children. And children take school more seriously when they know their parents are sacrificing for the sake of their future.โ
In another January 1999 piece for Policy Review, Meyerson described federal public school programs as an โevil empireโ:15โEducationโs Evil Empire,โ Policy Review, January 1, 1999. Archived April 12, 2019. Archive.fo URL: https://archive.vn/56MxH
โThe public education establishment today is where the Soviet Union was in 1987. It looks all powerful. It rules by fear and intimidation.

“Ronald Reagan predicted in 1982 that Marxism-Leninism would soon be consigned to the ash heap of history. The same prediction can be made today of the evil empire of American education.โ
Key Quotes
2019
In his opening remarks to the 2019 Annual Meeting of The Philanthropy Roundtable, Adam Meyerson mentioned funding for climate change as a reason to support non-transparency of charitable donations:16Adam Meyerson.”Why We Protect Private Giving,” The Philanthropy Roundtable, 2019. Archived April 13, 2023. Archive URL: https://archive.ph/wip/IIYy3
“Throughout American history, donors have enjoyed the freedom to make their own charitable decisions. And our nation has benefited from the vast range of experiments launched by different givers. Unlike elected leaders, donors are not bound by politics. Unlike businesses, they do not have to make money. Their independence has enabled them to support bold, sometimes unconventional, even unpopular initiatives.
“The opponents of philanthropy contend that donors would do more for humanity if they transferred their assets to government through higher taxes, rather than investing in charitable causes. But if the Julius Rosenwald Fund had been accountable to voters, it would not have been able to finance the construction of 5,000 schools for African-American children in the Jim Crow South. The John M. Olin Foundation would not have been able to help create the Federalist Society. The Pew, Hewlett, and Packard foundations would not have been able to ring an early alarm on the dangers they see in climate change.”
2017
In a โPresident’s Noteโ in Philanthropy, the quarterly magazine of The Philanthropy Roundtable, Adam Meyerson clarified his definition of โfreedomโ and the โcore guiding principles at The Philanthropy Roundtableโ to include the ability to disclose as little information about a group’s charitable activities as possible and to โparticipate in the policy debate without fear of IRS harassmentโ:17โOur Mission: Protecting Your Freedom,โ Philanthropy, Spring 2017. Archived April 12, 2019. Archive.fo URL: https://archive.fo/UTTeP
โIf you are involved with a foundation, donor-advised fund, or other form of charitable giving, our mission at the Roundtable and our legislative arm the Alliance for Charitable Reform is to protect your freedom. Your freedom to support an unpopular cause. To develop and test an unconventional hypothesis. To participate in the policy debate without fear of IRS harassment. To give without burdensome and frivolous regulation. To spend down your assets, or to establish a perpetual endowment. To choose your grantees, including in this time of America First, your freedom to give overseas. And to protect your independence of action, we are committed to protecting your freedom to choose your own board and staff, and your freedom to decide what to disclose about your philanthropic strategy and with whom.โ
Meyerson stated that The Philanthropy Roundtable was โworking closelyโ with conservative groups, including the State Policy Network, the American Legislative Exchange Council, and the Center for Competitive Politics, to fight for the right to give anonymously:18โOur Mission: Protecting Your Freedom,โ Philanthropy, Spring 2017. Archived April 12, 2019. Archive.fo URL: https://archive.fo/UTTeP
โThe Philanthropy Roundtable is also committed to protecting your right as an individual to give anonymously, a right Americans have enjoyed throughout our history.
[โฆ]
This historic right is under attack now, including from the attorneys general of California and New York as well as state legislators of both parties across the nation. The Roundtable has filed amicus briefs in three important cases designed to confirm and build on the NAACP decision. We are working closely with organizations such as State Policy Network, the American Legislative Exchange Council, and the Center for Competitive Politics. And we hope that our friends in the progressive and social justice communities will join us in building a broad coalition to protect this fundamental freedom.โ
2013
In a “President’s Note” published in Philanthropy, the quarterly magazine of The Philanthropy Roundtable, Adam Meyerson argued that “so-called ‘dark money’ illuminates our free societyโ:19Adam Meyerson. โPresident’s Note: Misconceptions about ‘Dark Money’,โ Philanthropy Roundtable, Fall 2013. Archived April 9, 2019. Archive.fo URL: https://archive.fo/M8JWb
โLiberal critics of DonorsTrust, a donor-advised-fund sponsor for ‘organizations that promote liberty,’ have labeled it as a ‘secretive funding network’ and ‘dark-money ATM.’ But the right to privacy enjoyed by contributors to donor-advised funds is no different than the right to privacy that governs the overwhelming majority of charitable giving.”
March 9, 2012
In an op-ed for The Wall Street Journal, Adam Meyerson mentioned climate change as he criticized the Pew Charitable Trusts for providing funding in ways that diverged from the “principles governing their founders’ charitable giving,” which in oil magnate J. Howard Pew’s case included advocacy for “the evils of bureaucracy,” “freedom of the individual,” and “the values of a free market”:20Adam Meyerson. “When Philanthropy Goes Wrong: Henry Ford didn’t intend to be ‘giving folks things.‘,” The Wall Street Journal, March 9, 2012. Archived January 2, 2020. Archive URL: https://archive.ph/Z30TX
“Admirers and critics alike of Pew’s recent signature initiativesโsuch as its crusades for campaign finance regulation, universal early childhood education, and recognition of the dangers of global climate changeโcan agree that in the past two decadesโwith the exception of its emphasis on religion in public lifeโJ. Howard’s worldview and philanthropic goals have played little role in Pew’s charitable giving.”
January 2010
In an op-ed for Imprimis, a magazine published by Hillsdale College, Adam Meyerson mentioned climate change in the context of promoting “private charitable giving”21:Adam Meyerson “The Generosity of America,” Imprimis, January 2010, Vol. 39 Issue 1. Archived April 13, 2023. Archive URL: https://archive.is/wip/GaGcA
“Private charitable giving is also at the heart and soul of public discourse in our democracy. It makes possible our great think tanks, whether left, right or center. Name a great issue of public debate today: climate change, the role of government in health care, school choice, stem cell research, same-sex marriage. On all these issues, private philanthropy enriches debate by enabling organizations with diverse viewpoints to articulate and spread their message.”
2009
In the spring 2009 issue of Philanthropy, Adam Meyerson criticized a new report from the National Committee for Responsive Philanthropy as “part of a political strategy to limit the freedom of donors and foundations to decide where to give away their money”:22โNCRPโs Narrow and Arbitrary Criteria,โ Philanthropy, Spring 2009. Archived April 12, 2019. Archive.fo URL: https://archive.fo/cONCA
โNCRPโs standards for excellence are too narrow and arbitrary to be a useful guide for grantmakers seeking to improve their performance, or for media and watchdog groups seeking to assess charitable giving.”
April 2006
In an interview with In Character, a publication of the John Templeton Foundation, Meyerson argued that Americans give more charitable donations than citizens of other rich nations because the U.S. is a more religious country. Excerpts:23โInterview – Adam Meyerson,โ Philanthropy Roundtable, April 2006. Archived April 12, 2019. Archive.fo URL: https://archive.fo/QApQz
Excerpt:
“Adam Meyerson: Why is America such a generous country? First, of all the economically prosperous countries in the world, we are probably the most religious country, and religion and charity are highly correlated. Americans who attend religious services once a week give three times as much of a percentage of their income as those who do not attend religious services regularly. They give more not only to religious organizations, but to secular organizations as well by comparison with non-churchgoers.
“In Character: What are your thoughts on that phrase you often hear, ‘giving back to society’?
“AM: I hate it.
“IC: Why do you hate it?
“AM: It implies that those who have made money have taken from society. In fact, they have already given to society. They are great entrepreneurs. Theyโve helped create wealth. Theyโve helped to create jobs and opportunity…
“IC: Could you give us a brief description of the work of your organization, the Philanthropy Roundtable? Why do you encourage donors to give money in their lifetimes rather than as bequests?
“AM: We are an association of about 500 philanthropic foundations and very charitable families. Our mission is to help donors advance freedom, opportunity, and personal responsibility, both in this country and abroad. We also have a special interest in helping donors achieve their philanthropic intent. Unfortunately, the sad history of the modern foundation is the history of one great foundation after another ignoring or in some cases explicitly violating the most cherished principles of their founders.”
May 1997
In a May 1997 edition of Policy Review, Adam Meyerson wrote about โfamily valuesโ and three โprincipal challengesโ for conservatives:24Adam Meyerson. โFamily. Faith. Freedom,โ Policy Review, May 1, 1997. Retrieved from the Hoover Institution. Archived April 12, 2019. Archive.fo URL: https://archive.fo/Czxsb
โThe Family. Conservatives have won the argument about the central importance of making sure that every child grows up with a mother and father. The next challenge is to translate this victory into a strategy for reinforcing marriage in public policy, and for giving parents more control over the education and upbringing of their children.
โFaith. Conservatives are breaking down barriers to religion in the public square by emphasizing such principles as religious freedom and religious expression. But they haven’t yet found an effective vocabulary for arguing that religion should take a more central place in American life. The next challenge is to encourage greater public appreciation of the role of religion and religious believers in healthy societies while affirming a commitment to the separation of church and state.
โFreedom. Conservatives have won the argument about the importance of private voluntary associations in a free society. The next challenge is twofold: First, to strengthen civic institutions without resorting to government subsidies that create dependency and destroy any sense of mission; and second, to empower citizens to reassume the primary responsibility for helping the needy through religious, charitable, and civic institutions.โ
On marriage and homosexuality, Meyerson stated that homosexual unions should not be given a “special status” equivalent to heterosexual marriages:25โFamily. Faith. Freedom.โ Policy Review, May 1, 1997. Retrieved from Hoover Institution. Archived April 12, 2019. Archive.fo URL: https://archive.fo/Czxsb
โA renewed focus on how public policy can make it more likely that children will grow up with both a mother and father gives conservatives a new vocabulary for talking about homosexuals, a vocabulary that recognizes their rights as citizens of a free country without according them special status or approval. Public policy gives special privileges and protections to marriage because it is the most important institution for the raising of children. Homosexuals are free to form their own lasting unions and to make their own personal commitments to each other, but it trivializes marriage to give such unions the special protections of the law or the subsidies that are intended to help mothers and fathers raise children into upstanding citizens.โ (emphasis added)
On sex education, Adam Meyerson advocated religion and abstinence as the best methods to reduce teen pregnancy:26โFamily. Faith. Freedom.โ Policy Review, May 1, 1997. Retrieved from Hoover Institution. Archived April 12, 2019. Archive.fo URL: https://archive.fo/Czxsb
โCongress should hold hearings to explore why sex-education programs in high schools and junior high schools have failed to reduce teenage out-of-wedlock pregnancies. Hearings also should be held on private programs, such as Elayne Bennett’s Best Friends and Kathleen Sullivan’s Project Reality, that have outstanding track records in reducing teen pregnancy by encouraging abstinence (see ‘Chastity Programs Shatter Sex-Ed Myths,’ page 12). Similar hearings also could be held on the bipartisan National Campaign to Prevent Teen Pregnancy, established recently in response to a challenge from President Clinton with the goal of reducing the teen pregnancy rate by one-third by 2005. One of the most significant features of the campaign is its acknowledgment that ‘part of a strategy for reducing teenage pregnancy should be a more overt discussion of religion, culture, and public values.’โ
1994
Adam Meyerson wrote an article in the spring 1994 edition of Policy Review on โThe Growing Conservatism of Black Americaโ:27Adam Meyerson. โManna 2 Society: The Growing Conservatism of Black Americaโ (PDF), Policy Review No. 68 (Spring 1994). Archived .pdf on file at DeSmog.
โMany important white conservative organizations are stepping up efforts to attract black membership. Focus on the Family is organizing an urban ministry program dedicated to restoring the black family. The Christian Coalition is aggressively signing up black and Hispanic members. The Traditional Values Coalition โฆ unites black and white pastors in opposition to government efforts to legitimate homosexuality.โ
In another section of the article, under the heading โthe challenge of conservatism.โ Meyerson contended that conservatism โasks the right questionsโ about “the collapse of the family”:28Adam Meyerson. โManna 2 Society: The Growing Conservatism of Black Americaโ (PDF), Policy Review No. 68 (Spring 1994). Archived .pdf on file at DeSmog.
โConservatives believe that the collapse of the family-white as well as black-is the most serious problem facing America today โฆ The liberal answer is financial help for broken families. Conservatives say that’s not enough; more than money, children need parents who love them and love each other. Conservatives think one of our society’s highest priorities must be to provide moral authority to young people. Unlike liberals, we think this is a higher priority, say, than sex education or make-work public-sector summer jobs. Boys and girls need and want to be told, lovingly but firmly, what’s right and wrong.
[…]
โWe [conservatives] think it is morally wrong for unmarried girls and women to deliberately have children and then expect to be taken care of by the government.โ
Key Deeds
Summer 2013
Following the release of a U.S. Treasury Department report on oversight of foundations, Adam Meyerson outlined The Philanthropy Roundtable’s โaction list on the IRS scandalโ:29โBe On the Look Out,โ Philanthropy, Summer 2013. Archived April 12, 2019. Archive.fo URL: https://archive.fo/nBFJ4
โWe will strongly oppose any effort to expand the IRSโs oversight over foundations and public charities, beyond its historic role of ensuring compliance with the tax code.
“We will strongly oppose the creation of a new regulatory agency to oversee foundations and charities, as was proposed in a Congressional Research Service report in 2009.
โFinally, we will strongly oppose efforts by federal and state legislators to restrict what is considered charitable. Americans have historically enjoyed wide discretion in choosing their charitable causes, even unpopular ones.โ
October 2011
The Philanthropy Roundtable, then led by Adam Meyerson, awarded the William E. Simon Prize for Philanthropic Leadership to Charles Koch. According to the group’s Philanthropy Magazine, โthe prize is intended to honor living philanthropists who have shown exemplary leadership through their own charitable giving, either directly or through foundations they have created.โ30โMarket-Based Man,โ Philanthropy Roundtable, 2011.
