If you work at Amazon, Google, Twitter, Facebook, or Microsoft, know that your labor is being used to fund large donations to Republicans like Poliquin, Cruz, Nunes, Scalise and worse. Have a look at https://donationsfrom.tech for some good examples. Make a ruckus to your CEO!

Here's Amazon giving $1K to Republican Ken Buck (running against the Great Slate's

Here's Twitter donating to Republican Elise Stefanik, who sits on the House Intelligence Committee and voted to quash the investigation into Russian interference. This is one of only two donations Twitter made in April. Who at Twitter thought having a PAC was a good idea?pic.twitter.com/tAZmMNGcGe

I'm not sure I follow the question—this is the Microsoft corporate PAC, the only entity allowed to make direct political contributions for Microsoft
