The Business Roundtable (BRT) is a conservative group of chief executive officers of major U.S. corporations formed to promote pro-business public policy.〔Greenhouse, L. (1991, March 7). The Business Roundtable is mentioned by G. William Domhoff in ''Who Rules America?'' Domhoff argues that the Business Roundtable supports the network of corporate control and influence over the economy, politics, and media. Perils to conservatives in a conservative court.

(p. 338)〕 ==History== The Roundtable was founded in 1972 by John Harper, the head of ALCOA Aluminum, and Fred Borch, CEO of General Electric, who were concerned about growing public hostility toward corporations as evidenced by support for government regulation of the workplace environment and about the power of unions to squeeze corporate profits in an increasingly competitive international market. The two CEOs talked with John Connally, President Nixon's Secretary of Treasury, and Arthur Burns, the Chairman of the Federal Reserve, who advised them to set up a lobbying organization that would specifically represent large banks and corporations. Harper was the first president, followed by Thomas Murphy of General Motors, Irving Shapiro of Du Pont, and Clifford Garvin of Exxon. The group was formed through the merger of three existing organizations: the March Group, consisting of chief executive officers who met informally to consider public policy issues; the Construction Users Anti-Inflation Roundtable, a group devoted to containing construction costs; and, the Labor Law Study Committee, largely made up of labor relations executives of major companies.〔("About Us" ), Business Roundtable website〕 The group is called President Obama's "closest ally in the business community."〔http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2010/06/22/AR2010062205279.html〕
