1. Secretary Clinton will resign from the Foundation board
2. The Foundation name will remain unchanged 3. Secretary Clinton will not participate in any fundraising activity a. Internal note: Secretary Clintons name and image will not be used in promotional material (unless specific to her past work at the Foundation) b. Internal note: Secretary Clinton will be focused on campaigning so in stepping down from the Board, she will not be available to participate in Foundation activities c. Internal note: Secretary Clinton of course will continue to champion the policies and type of work the Foundation does to improve lives 4. Secretary Clinton will not use her office at the Foundation, but it will remain as is, unused 5. The Office of Hillary Rodham Clinton at the Clinton Foundation has been dissolved 6. Donor disclosure will increase to quarterly and, to the extent possible, will align with the FEC disclosure cycle 7. Foreign government contributions. There are multiple options for consideration: a. Secretary Clintons preference is for the Foundation to continue to accept foreign government contributions, but to significantly increase disclosure. She does not want to limit the Foundations ability to operate programs now or in the future. We could go further and say the programs are already funded (listing out current funders) and we are not expecting additional funds, but we dont want to close the door to unexpected opportunities. b. Alternative compromise would be to say that the Foundation will not accept contributions from foreign governments unless that funding is part of an ongoing program or a disbursement for a completed negotiation. That includes the following: i. Clinton Climate Initiatives Forestry program will continue to be funded by Germany, Australia and Norway.
ii. Clinton Climate Initiatives Islands program will continue to
be funded by Austria and Norway. iii. Clinton Development Initiatives farming and health work in Malawi will continue to be funded by German and Dutch governments. iv. Clinton Foundations Haiti reconstruction efforts will continue to be funded by Qatar [may be able to take this out pending discussions to have funds go direct] v. Clinton Giustra Enterprise Partnerships work around training, supply chains, and distribution enterprises will continue to be funded by Canada, UK, Dutch, German governments vi. CHAIs health work will continue to be funded by Australia, Ireland, Norway, UK, Canada, Switzerland, New Zealand, and Sweden c. The final option would mirror the 2008 MOU agreement whereby the Foundation submits new foreign government contributions and those of a substantial size increase to an independent body (e.g. White House, State Department) for review. The obvious challenge with this is that there is no independent body to make that review.
