Despite facing a subpoena over alleged collusion with major corporations, Ceres has spent over $1 million on lobbying \u2063while shaping a new climate disclosure\u200c proposal that \u200denergy groups argue\u200c is unpopular \u200dand a free-market overreach.<\/p>\n<p>The \u2064ties between \u200bCeres \u200band the government \u2063highlight how the Biden administration relies on liberal activist hubs to \u2062pass unprecedented laws that could have <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/white-house-no-new-proactive-step-on-tiktok-deal-under-biden\/\" title=\"White House: No New \u2018Proactive Step\u2019 on TikTok Deal Under Biden\">national security risks<\/a>. Critics argue that these policies could lead to a crackdown on appliances reliant on oil and gas. President Biden&#8217;s National \u200cClimate Task Force and the allocation\u2064 of \u200cbillions of dollars for green energy initiatives have raised \u2062concerns among Republicans and\u200c conservative groups.<\/p>\n<h3>Powerful \u200bNetworks and Financial \u200bBacking<\/h3>\n<p>Ceres manages a network of over 220 institutional investors with more than $46 trillion in assets. The organization aims to accelerate\u200b the transition to a sustainable, net-zero\u200c emissions economy.\u200d Recent\u2064 tax filings\u200b reveal that Ceres raised $26.5 million, with two anonymous \u200bgrantees providing 35% of that sum. The charity has also\u200b received \u200dmillions of dollars from the\u2064 New Venture Fund, a nonprofit organization\u2062 managed by Arabella Advisors, which is currently\u2064 under investigation for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/corporate-medias-free-pr-for-grifters-like-kendi-resulted-in-millions-of-losses-for-big-and-small-donors\/\" title=\"Corporate media's promotion of grifters like Kendi led to significant financial losses for both large and small donors.\">financial mismanagement \u200callegations<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Members of the Ceres investor network, including investment firms like \u2062Bain Capital and BlackRock, have sought\u200b to\u200d pressure stock\u200b exchanges and regulators to improve \u2062climate\u2062 and sustainability risk\u200d disclosure. They\u2063 also advocate for stronger climate and clean energy policies at all levels of government.<\/p>\n<h3>Lobbying Efforts and White House\u2062 Access<\/h3>\n<p>Ceres\u200b has deployed\u200b lobbyists to Washington to advocate for electric vehicle\u200d tax incentives, emissions reductions, and other climate-related amendments. Ceres President Mindy Lubber has visited the White House six times since 2021, highlighting the organization&#8217;s influence.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;One of the most sinister\u2062 aspects of the \u2062Biden administration is their \u200cpolicy of allowing extreme environmental personnel and policies free rein to attack American \u200benergy through official actions,&#8221; \u200csaid\u2064 Larry Behrens, spokesman for the right-leaning Power the Future \u2063energy advocacy group.<\/p>\n<h3>Antitrust Concerns and SEC Rule<\/h3>\n<p>Ceres came under scrutiny when it faced a subpoena from the House Judiciary Committee over its efforts to advance corporate \u2064environmental, social, and governance\u200c (ESG) \u2062initiatives. The organization is now advocating for a Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) rule\u2063 that would <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/sec-eyes-forcing-companies-to-disclose-data-on-social-issues-sparking-politicization-concerns\/\" title=\"SEC Eyes Forcing Companies To Disclose Data On \u2018Social\u2019 Issues, Sparking \u2018Politicization\u2019 Concerns\">require public companies<\/a> to disclose their greenhouse gas emissions. Critics argue\u2062 that this rule could lead to \u2062arbitrary standards \u200dlimiting companies&#8217; abilities to function.<\/p>\n<p>Internal documents reveal communications between Ceres and the SEC, raising \u2063concerns\u2063 about the\u2064 organization&#8217;s influence. Critics argue that\u200d activists and business interests\u2064 are closely working\u200c with\u200d the SEC to develop their climate disclosure agenda.<\/p>\n<p>Despite claims of transparency and compliance, Ceres&#8217; actions and financial \u200dbacking raise \u2062questions about \u200bits influence\u2062 on the Biden administration&#8217;s green energy policies.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p> <\/p>\n<h2> What are the concerns raised \u200bby\u200d critics regarding Ceres&#8217; powerful \u200dnetwork\u200b and financial backing, and how does the ongoing \u200cinvestigation into Ceres&#8217; financial supporters contribute to these concerns<\/h2>\n<p><span>  Nder investigation by Congress for potential financial improprieties. This financial backing enables Ceres \u2062to have a significant\u200d influence \u200bon \u200cthe Biden administration&#8217;s green energy policies.<\/p>\n<p>Through its extensive\u2062 network and collaborations, Ceres has been able to shape federal rules that specifically target the fossil fuels industry. Its efforts have resulted in a climate disclosure \u200dproposal that many energy groups\u2063 argue is unpopular and represents a \u2063free-market overreach. Critics contend that\u200d these policies have the potential to negatively impact industries reliant on \u200doil and gas, leading to national security risks and a potential crackdown on appliances using these\u2062 energy sources.<\/p>\n<p>The ties between Ceres and the government highlight the reliance of \u2063the Biden administration on liberal \u200dactivist \u200borganizations to pass unprecedented laws. The administration&#8217;s National Climate Task Force and the allocation of\u200b billions of dollars \u2063for green\u200c energy initiatives have raised \u2063concerns among\u2062 Republicans and conservative groups. They argue that these policies\u2062 may have adverse consequences for the economy and\u200b individual freedoms.<\/p>\n<p>One of the key factors enabling Ceres&#8217; influence is its powerful network and financial backing. With over 220 institutional investors and assets totaling more than $46 trillion, Ceres has a significant platform to advocate for its agenda. Recent tax filings reveal that the organization\u2064 raised\u200d $26.5 million, with 35% of that \u200csum coming from anonymous grantees. Additionally, Ceres has <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wealthy-donald-trump-allies-pour-millions-into-maga-committee-records-show\/\" title=\"Wealthy Trump allies invest millions in MAGA committee, records reveal.\">received substantial financial support<\/a> \u2063from the New Venture Fund, a nonprofit organization managed by Arabella Advisors. This arrangement has raised questions\u200b as Arabella Advisors is\u2064 currently\u2063 under investigation by Congress for potential financial improprieties.<\/p>\n<p>It is undeniable that Ceres plays a substantial role in shaping the Biden administration&#8217;s green energy policies. However, critics argue that the organization&#8217;s agenda, driven by its powerful network and financial backing, may not align \u200dwith the best interests of the country. The potential violation of antitrust \u2062laws \u200cand the ongoing investigation into its financial supporters further\u2064 raise concerns about the legitimacy \u200dand transparency of Ceres&#8217; influence.<\/p>\n<p>As the Biden administration continues to pursue its \u2064<a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/former-energy-sec-calls-for-investigations-into-doe-grant-to-china-based-battery-company\/\" title=\"Former Energy Sec Calls for Investigations Into DOE Grant to China-Based Battery Company\">ambitious green energy agenda<\/a>, it is crucial to carefully evaluate the organizations and individuals influencing these policies. An open and transparent dialogue is necessary to ensure that \u2062the decisions made by the \u2063government are in \u200cthe best interest of the \u200cAmerican people\u2064 and the nation as a whole.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A left-wing group, Ceres, accused of antitrust law violations, is discreetly shaping the Biden administration&#8217;s efforts for extensive green energy policies.
