Democrats seize on GOP donor fallout
Democrats are seizing on the fallout from donors distancing themselves from Republicans, with lawmakers and advocacy groups saying it's a rare opportunity to change fundraising rules and the influence corporations have on campaigns.
Progressives are ramping up calls to permanently eliminate corporate PAC contributions, while moderate Democrats see an opening to win over business groups and leaders who have traditionally thrown much of their support behind Republicans.
Major corporate donors are freezing their PACs and reassessing their giving strategies, while others say they won't give any money to the 147 Republicans who voted to challenge the 2020 election results in Arizona or Pennsylvania last week, just hours after the deadly attack on the Capitol by a pro-Trump mob.
But some critics of campaign financing want those freezes to become permanent.
