“Form 990 is prepared by an independent CPA firm and a draft copy is provided to the Organization's senior staff, outside general counsel and all board members for review. All comments after reviews are compiled and discussed with CPA firm for editing. After edits are made, final version of Form 990 is provided to the President, Treasurer, and Management Committee for final review. Once reviewed, the President is provided the final 990 for signature and filing.”
“Governance and Ethics Policy is reviewed and adopted annually by the Board of Directors and employees. FreedomWorks directors and employees shall disclose annually to the Secretary any direct conflict between their own individual interests and those of FreedomWorks. If such a conflict does exist, the director or employee shall provide the Secretary written notice of such relationship and shall refrain from acting on any issue with respect to which the director or employee is conflicted.”
“The process includes completion of an independent compensation study on a periodic basis, based on a compilation of competitive data representing similar organizations. This information is then presented to the compensation committee at a semi-annual Board meeting to discuss and vote on. This process includes compensation for the President or any person deemed a disqualified person under Internal Revenue Code Section 4958. The process for determining compensation of other officers or key employees of the organization is determined by the President.”
“FreedomWorks makes its Form 1024 available upon request. FreedomWorks makes available a public disclosure copy of its Federal Form 990 upon request.”
“FreedomWorks makes its governing documents, certain policies (including conflict of interest policy) and financial statements available upon request based on discretion of management.”
“FreedomWorks was founded to fight for liberty and brought together some of the best and brightest minds of the liberty movement. Since then, we've expanded our ambitions from a free-market think tank to a service center for the grassroots freedom movement across the whole country. We are over 6 million Americans who are passionate about promoting free markets and individual liberty. Our members all share three common traits: a desire for less government, lower taxes, and more economic freedom. For over a quarter century, FreedomWorks has identified, educated, and actuated citizens who are enthused about showing up to support free enterprise and constitutionally limited government. We are not primarily a "think-tank," content to study the issues and publish papers and reports. FreedomWorks breaks down the barriers between the beltway insiders and grassroots America. FreedomWorks members know that government goes to those who show up. That's why we give them the tools to break through the media noise and provide the same access to Washington as the big-moneyed lobbyists. Preserving liberty depends on all Americans having access to their elected officials--not just special interests. FreedomWorks holds Washington accountable to the citizens that put them in office.”
“Other professional fees and contract services: Program service expenses 555,543. Management and general expenses 3,289. Fundraising expenses 0. Total expenses 558,832.”
“FreedomWorks has an audit committee that assumes responsibility for oversight of the audit of its financial statements and selection of an independent accountant.”
“Management has evaluated FreedomWorks' tax positions and has concluded that FreedomWorks has taken no uncertain tax positions that qualify for either recognition or disclosure in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.”
