Funding Sources and Revenues While most progressive think tanks acquire their funding through many different sources, for conservative think tanks financing by corporations prevails. Among the think tanks receiving a considerable amount of corporate money are the Cato Institute (U.S. conservative/libertarian), the Brookings Institution (U.S. centrist), the Heritage Foundation (U.S. conservative), the American Enterprise Institute (U.S. conservative) and the Competitive Enterprise Institute (U.S. conservative). Also, whereas the combined revenue base of such conservative multi-issue policy institutions as the Heritage Foundation, the American Enterprise Institute, Free Congress Research and Education Foundation, the Cato Institute, and Citizens for a Sound Economy exceeded US$ 77 million in 1995, the roughly equivalent U.S. progressive Institute for Policy Studies, the Economic Policy Institute, Citizens for Tax Justice, and the Center for Budget and Policy Priorities had only US$ 9 million at their collective disposal in 1995. browse Report: Fact and opinion construction(think tanks)     Think Tanks  ... -3   Influence of Corporate Funding on Think Tank Activities -2   The Microsoft Case -1   Conservative vs. Progressive Think Tanks 0   Funding Sources and Revenues +1   Media Relations +2   Think Tanks and the Internet +3   Advertising, Public Relations and Think Tanks  INDEX CARD     RESEARCH MATRIX  Pfizer Pfizer Inc is a research-based, global pharmaceutical company.
