“Joe Biden is the president-elect, and we support the process and certification of his election,” Lo Isidro, a spokesman for the Koch backed Americans for Prosperity, said in a statement.

“Our top priority is building broad support around policies to end the pandemic and put Americans on a path to recover stronger while working against – and providing better alternatives to – destructive policies sold on empty promises that we know won’t work.”

The statement comes as other business-friendly organizations, including the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and the Business Roundtable, pushed back against a group of GOP senators and House members who say they plan to object to the Electoral College results.

Koch himself has publically congratulated Biden on his victory.
