Keeping my overhead low, and my understand high
Major corporations quietly funnel millions to national group behind regressive state laws

In 2022, the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, the nation’s largest lobbying group, has given the RSLC $250,000. In 2020, the Chamber was the largest donor to the RSLC. The Chamber’s membership consists of nearly every prominent corporation in this country.

The U.S. Chamber of Commerce did not respond to a request for comment.

Other prominent corporate donors to the RSLC include Altria ($300,000), Koch Industries ($225,000), GlaxoSmithKline ($75,000), Disney ($60,000, in-kind), Bayer ($50,000), Nationwide ($50,000), T-Mobile ($50,000), Uber ($50,000), Google ($30,000), 3M ($25,000), eBay ($25,000), Charter Communications ($20,000), PepsiCo ($15,000), MolsonCoors ($10,000), Mastercard ($5,000) and Wendy’s ($5,000).

OP,
Don't many of the major corporations make donations to candidates and organizations on both sides of the political aisle? For practical purposes, corporations feel they have to operate this way.

I believe that's the case.

This type of report has a goal of naming and shaming them a la how corps were recently pushed to cut ties with Russia.

the black cat is my crown...
sweet irony.... disney is funding the very group that is stripping away their self governing status....

anyhow, that's typical... in front of the cameras, corporations have to say the "right" things in order to keep their customers coming in... behind the scenes they are tightening the noose...
