Revolving Door Project — Legal Structure: Fiscally sponsored by Goodnation Foundation (EIN 81-4768448)
2 evidence checks from 1 unique source
Last checked: 3/31/2026
The claim states that the Revolving Door Project's legal structure is 'Project of the Goodnation Foundation.' However, the source text clearly states it is 'a fiscally sponsored project of the Goodnation Foundation' — not simply 'a project of' the foundation. The source also indicates it was 'originally a project of the Center for Economic and Policy Research (CEPR)' before becoming fiscally sponsored by Goodnation Foundation. Additionally, the source lists the organization type as 'Project of the Center for Economic and Policy Research' in the initial information box, suggesting the legal/organizational structure may be more complex than the claim indicates. The distinction between 'fiscally sponsored project' and 'project of' represents a meaningful legal/structural difference.

Note: The claim states that the Revolving Door Project's legal structure is 'Project of the Goodnation Foundation.' However, the source text contains a direct contradiction. In the initial Status field, it explicitly states the organization is a 'Project of the Center for Economic and Policy Research.' While the source does mention that it is 'fiscally sponsored' by the Goodnation Foundation and was 'originally' a project of CEPR, the primary legal/structural designation given in the Status field is CEPR, not Goodnation Foundation. The claim oversimplifies or misrepresents the actual legal structure by omitting the CEPR connection and presenting only the fiscal sponsorship relationship.
