      I'm surprised that the news of Microsoft suspending their political donations hasn't been more broadly covered.

      The world's largest corporation by market cap shut down its political action committee because of internal employee pressure on ethics. Seems relevant to @slpng_giants interests at least.

      And by shut down, I mean the head of MSPAC is gone! This wasn't just a conciliatory memo. It's the outcome of a multi-year internal effort by dedicated employees and deserves more attention from people covering campaign finance reform or labor activism

          Since this thread got linked, I'll re-post some resources here. This is the leaked internal memo suspending the PAC and promising employee participation in future decision-making: https://idlewords.com/microsoft_pac_statement.html …

          And this is more context on (speculation!) one reason the director of MSPAC may have left the company: https://idlewords.com/2019/07/microsoft_s_hypocrisy_on_daca.htm …

          There was always an untenable degree of dissonance between Microsoft's public statements and political giving, collected here: https://idlewords.com/microsoft_words_actions.html …. Neither the CEO or president had veto power over PAC donations, which made the timing of certain ones particularly bad.

          Microsoft is a finalist (along with Amazon) for a $10B Pentagon cloud computing contract. For them to decide to suspend their political giving now, before a final decision is made, reflects the degree of internal pressure Microsoft employees were bringing to bear

          If you've argued that corporate PACs are just a fact of doing business in the United States, consider that now the two largest American corporations don't run one. And I feel confident that Apple and Microsoft get their calls answered in D.C.

          My mistake was posting this story myself instead of feeding it to a reporter. They're like pythons; you have to wiggle the prey in front of them so they feel like they're hunting something
