@YAN0 @qz Same issue with Eli Lilly. Listed as targeting the 147, but the source linked says it is not targeting them https://t.co/x7JzDBVXTW — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
@YAN0 @qz As QZ member, is there any place I can look at what you heard from these companies? For instance, you have Dupont as suspending to the 147 objectors, but they've publicly said they are suspending all donations https://t.co/V578cCxtSc — PolitiTweet.org
DuPont @DuPont_News
Below is a DuPont Statement on Political Contributions. https://t.co/uNgG64zhCC

@YAN0 @qz Wow. Impressive. So the people on this list that haven't been previously reported directly sent you a response saying they would take the actions described (unless you have that little pencil by the name with a link) — PolitiTweet.org

@paulsolman @Kinder_Cons There is a good rundown in this article: https://t.co/xEhi9XtzC8 — PolitiTweet.org

"“These companies have a right to say that if your values and votes don’t align with our corporate values and policies, we’re not going to support you. That’s accountability, and in American politics there’s almost none anymore. You know how rarely that happens?” — PolitiTweet.org

"Republican members who stand to lose the most include Frank Lucas of OK, Blaine Luetkemeyer of MO, Adrian Smith of NE and Sam Graves of MO. All voted to overturn Biden’s wins... and received more than two thirds of their campaign contributions from corporate PACs." — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
"Of the 399 House incumbents who ran for re-election last year, 86 raised more than half of their campaign money from business PACs in the 2020 election cycle" — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
"If it does last, the tourniquet on giving would impost a small but significant constriction in the system of political fund raising that favors incumbents, provides access for lobbyists and helps decide who rises to leadership positions." — PolitiTweet.org
