The Ford family has not been involved with the foundation since 1976 when Henry Ford II left the board of trustees in disgust in 1977. He wrote in his resignation letter:<ref>Mac Donald, Heather (1996). [http://www.city-journal.org/html/6_4_a1.html The Billions of Dollars That Made Things Worse]. ''City Journal''.</ref>

==Investigation by [[Reece Committee]]==
During the 82nd Congress, the Select Committee to Investigate Tax-Exempt Foundations and Comparable Organizations, known as the [[Cox Committee]] under the leadership of [[Georgia]] Democrat [[Edward E. Cox]], failed to sufficiently conduct its job of thoroughly examining tax-exempt foundations.<ref name=fascinatingpolitics>FascinatingPolitics (December 22, 2019). [https://fascinatingpolitics.com/2019/12/22/the-reece-committee-on-foundations-conspiratorial-nonsense-or-an-expose-of-a-threat-to-the-nation/comment-page-1/ The Reece Committee on Foundations: Conspiratorial Nonsense or an Expose of a Threat to the Nation?]. ''Mad Politics: The Bizarre, Fascinating, and Unknown of American Political History''. Retrieved August 24, 2021.</ref> Among the complaints made by committee member [[B. Carroll Reece]] was that it did not investigate the Ford Foundation.
Cox died in office, and Reece was the only remaining committee member who sought a re-enactment to fully accomplish the task. The 83rd Congress in 1953 re-enacted the select committee at his urging, and he became the chair; it was thus known as the '''Reece Committee'''.
The Reece Committee investigated the Ford Foundation's donations towards [[Alfred Kinsey]],<ref name=fascinatingpolitics/> a [[sexual revolution]]ary and pervert who collaborated with Nazis and pedophiles for his "research."<ref>Allen, Tanya Granic (December 22, 2015).

Gaither also admitted that the foundation "would not think of" admitting such [[subversive]] efforts to the American people.<ref name=interview/>
