FreedomWorks was a conservative and libertarian advocacy group based in Washington, D.C. FreedomWorks trained volunteers and assisted in campaigns. It was widely associated with the Tea Party movement.[3][4][5][6][7] The Koch brothers were once a source of the organization's funding.[6] FreedomWorks shut down in May 2024.[8]
