American Express, Hallmark, Blue Cross Blue Shield, and Nike have all permanently stopped PAC donations to the 147 Republicans who voted to overturn our Democracy.
The Hill reports "Republicans are scrambling to contain the fallout as major donors freeze political contributions and distance themselves from lawmakers who voted to overturn the Electoral College results."
So what’s the problem at Burger King, Hewlett-Packard, and Southwest Airlines? They’ve all refused to take a stand or refused to even answer!
Then, donate to build pressure in Congress to EXPEL Ted Cruz, Josh Hawley, and the 145 other traitors who tried to overturn our election. -- The PCCC Team

Well, this is amazing.
Corporate PACs are announcing they will stop donating to the traitors in Congress.
American Express promised to never again donate to ANY of the 147 congressional Republicans like Ted Cruz and Josh Hawley who voted to overturn our democratic election. Hallmark is demanding their money back!
The Washington Post reports a “deluge of announcements” by some corporations is creating pressure on others.
Hundreds of corporate PACs have been contacted. On our #DrainTheTraitors page, we tell you which response they have given:
- Great answers! Permanently have cut donations.
- Good, but temporary. We're pushing them to make permanent.
- False equivalence. Cutting "all" donations to everyone - very wimpy.
- Blah answers. "Reviewing" their policies.
- No comment or refused to take a stand.
If corporations want their customers, investors, and employees to know they stand with American democracy, they must take a stand now.
By thanking corporations that will never donate again to these 147 traitors, we can encourage other corporations to do the same. And by shaming brands that refuse -- or that want the positive PR without meaningfully standing up for democracy -- we can create pressure to change their mind.
Thanks for being a bold progressive.
