ReportDonors to Trump’s White House ballroom have $279B in federal contracts
"Most of the publicly identified donors to President Donald Trump’s White House ballroom have high-stakes business before the administration, ranging from billions in government contracts to federal investigations into their companies, according to a report released Monday by a government watchdog group.
More than half of the companies that donated are facing or have recently faced federal enforcement actions tied to alleged wrongdoing that includes engaging in unfair labor practices, deceiving consumers and harming the environment, according to the report from Public Citizen, a consumer advocacy organization. The nonprofit, founded in 1971 by left-leaning political activist Ralph Nader, focuses on corporate money and influence in government. The donors have sprawling interests that touch nearly every aspect of American life, including tariffs, technology, taxation, online privacy and manufacturing.
The analysis focused on the three dozen corporate and individual donors the Trump administration has disclosed, plus three more that have since been publicly identified. It found the group has received $279 billion in government contracts over the past five years and spent $1.6 billion in political contributions and lobbying fees during that time. The list contains heavyweights in the tech, financial and defense sectors, including Google, Comcast and Lockheed Martin."
