The Patman Committee was a select committee which investigated tax-exempt foundations largely in the 1960s. Known as the Select Committee on Small Business and chaired by Texas liberal Democrat Wright Patman from 1955 to 1963,[1] it sought to determine whether large foundations used their privileges for the purpose of evading taxes.
