Washington, D.C. - In a new bombshell report today, Fox News is exposing the flow of money from the United Nations Foundation to American state governments in an effort to sway climate policy. According to tax filings, the foundation sent $5.4 million to 12 state governments to pay for staff within governor’s offices and state agencies. These staff members then are able to influence climate policy at the state level in an arrangement they labeled as “UN strengthening.”

“It’s sickening to see governors taking in millions through a cozy climate scheme while working Americans are paying more for energy,” said Daniel Turner, Founder and Executive Director for Power The Future. “We see these governors smile along while Joe Biden forces his climate mandates and now we know the reason why is because they’re influenced by staff on the United Nations payroll. These backdoor funding schemes should be illegal, but for the eco-left it’s just business as usual.”  

According to the report, the following states are part of the United Nations Foundation program and received targeted funds since 2020:

• North Carolina - $1.2 million

• Michigan - $451,000

• Maine - $853,000

• New Mexico - $725,193
