There are many paths for big money to flow to and to corrupt politicians. Announcements about corporate PACs suspending donations are insufficient. Corporate officials sometimes make political expenditures and contributions – whether from a corporate PAC, from personal funds, or directly from corporate treasury – not necessarily because they like the politician but because they are buying access.
“The Daily Poster contacted scores of companies linked to top SLF and CLF donors, and virtually none committed to taking steps to restrict top corporate officials from continuing to make far larger donations to the super PACs that bankroll congressional Republicans.“
