Tom Steyer: Billionaire Democratic Donor was a Fusion GPS Client
[Daily Caller] Years before Fusion GPS became famous for its work on the Trump dossier, the opposition research firm worked for Tom Steyer, the billionaire Democratic donor currently waging a $20 million TV campaign to impeach President Trump.

A Daily Caller investigation reveals that in 2012, Steyer, a hedge fund chieftain and environmental activist, hired Fusion GPS and its founding partner, Glenn Simpson, to conduct an investigation to help pass a ballot initiative aimed at closing a tax loophole for California businesses and funneling money to clean energy projects.

Steyer poured $32 million into "Yes on Prop 39," a committee he formed to support ballot initiative Proposition 39. The successful campaign made Steyer a rising star in the world of Democratic politics. The party’s most generous donor in the 2016 election cycle ‐ giving more than $90 million to various political action committees ‐ Steyer is said to be considering running for political office.

The connection between Fusion GPS to Steyer and his "Yes on Prop 39" campaign has not been previously reported, and there is almost no public information linking them.
