Senators Warren and Bennet Seek Answers on Big Tech's $1 Million Donations to Trump by Jan. 31 Deadline
Jan 17, 2025, 06:40 PM
Senators Elizabeth Warren and Michael Bennet have expressed concerns over large donations made by tech industry leaders and companies to President-elect Donald Trump's inaugural fund. The senators sent letters to CEOs of Amazon, Apple, Google, Meta, Microsoft, OpenAI, and Uber, questioning the motives behind these contributions, which they suggest are attempts to 'cozy up' to the incoming administration to avoid regulatory scrutiny. Notable donations include $1 million each from Apple CEO Tim Cook, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, and companies like Google, Microsoft, and Amazon. The lawmakers are worried about the potential influence of corporate money on the Trump administration and have requested detailed responses by the January 31, 2025 deadline to understand the decision-making process behind these contributions.
