Two of the biggest US banks and other corporations said they are pausing or reviewing their political action committee donations in the wake of last week’s riot at the Capitol.
JPMorgan Chase and Citigroup said they are pausing all PAC donations to Republicans and Democrats in the coming months. Other companies, including the Blue Cross Blue Shield insurance group and Marriott International, said they would pause donations to Republican lawmakers who objected to President-elect Joe Biden’s Electoral College win after supporters of President Trump stormed the Capitol on 6 January.
