Major Companies Suspend Political Donations

  • Forbes, Monday, January 11, 2021 9:04 PM
The list of companies that have said they are altering or reviewing the political donations made through their PACs continues to grow. Many are suspending contributions specifically to the Republican members of Congress who challenged the certification of President-elect Joe Biden’s victory. Among the first to make the move were Marriott International, Blue Cross Blue Shield, CitiBank and JPMorgan Chase. Hilton Hotels, American Airlines, BP, Goldman Sachs, Boston Scientific, Microsoft, Hallmark, Facebook and Visa all said they will suspend and review political giving to both parties, while AirBnB, Verizon, AT&T, American Express, Mastercard, and Dow are halting donations to the Republican objectors specifically for either a few months or an indefinite period of time.
