Did Google previously donate to those members of Congress who voted against the election results?
I may be wrong but I suspect they did not and are making this announcement as a way to pander and improve their social standing.
I'd like to announce that I also won't donate to member of congress who voted against the election results.
- newacct583 6y agoAlmost all large corporations donate very broadly, so it's likely Google itself or a PAC they control did, yes. It's true that there's a certain amount of performative dancing (or "virtue signaling", if that matches your tribe's jargon better) going on here. Pulling back on giving at the very beginning of a congressional cycle, when little giving happens, isn't really doing much in a concrete sense. But no, the impact is real as far as it goes. Google is not a "democratic" company in any real sense. Almost no large corporations look partisan in that way.
