TELL CATHOLIC UNIV.: DON'T TAKE KOCH BROTHERS' MONEY


Dear Faithful America member,


Should America's flagship Catholic university take a million dollars from the Koch brothers to spread their right-wing, anti-poor agenda?
The billionaire Koch brothers are the biggest funders of the tea party movement and the anti-government think tanks that are waging war on anti-poverty programs.


But even though the Koch brothers' efforts are clearly out of step with Catholic social teaching, the Catholic University of America just announced a million dollar donation from Charles Koch to their business and economics school.
The Koch brothers' past donations to universities have come with strings attached -- Charles Koch used a similar donation to veto most of the professors another university wanted to hire with his donation.


Catholic University needs to put its academic integrity and commitment to social justice ahead of the Koch brothers' radical agenda. Will you sign the petition?


Tell Catholic University: Don't take the Koch brothers' money.Blessings,
Michael and Aaron
