Tl;dr they all support both sides so no matter the election they always get what they want.

    For tax purposes and to lobby for pet projects, yes they lobby both sides. Some corporations lobby for ideological issues. You will find that the vast majority of them get republican support. Plenty of not-for-profits lobby the left as well but you're not buying their products and paying for ideologies you may not agree with.

    There is 0 reason this should be an app. Stop making shitty apps and just have proper websites.

    Politicians should wear company logos like racing drivers so we know who they are sponsored by.

    Doesn't say it, but looks like it's USA only.

    Companies openly giving money to politicians is USA only. In other countries it's bribery and corruption.

    Per Anthony Kennedy and a completely fair and impartial republiQan-aligned Supreme Court, money is just another word for free speech.

    Corporations are people, my friend.

    PSA: You can make a shortcut and place it on your home screen with most mobile browsers, on Android, and, as far as I know, on iOS. Don't let people trick you into installing apps for things websites can do.

    It seems to be based on the contributions of employees not the company itself. I looked up a huge tech company and it said Bernie Sanders was the number one politician supported. That's absolutely ridiculous. Who cares what employees at a company support? Do they control any of the money used for lobbying?

    This site would be fantastic if they supplied product lists and alternatives.

    Great site! Thanks for sharing.

    Most of the companies I've looked up so far are donating pretty equally to both parties. Except Honda, they're pretty heavily invested in the Democrat party.

    Edit: I found one with a perfect score! Kawasaki motors. That's great, because I love their bikes!

    Can anyone see the information on this page?

    https://www.goodsuniteus.com/brands/#/brand/google

    Whatever OS or browser I use, with or without VPN, it's just a blank page. Same for Alphabet Inc.

    Any other brand just shows up like normal.

    All 3 major hardware stores (Home Depot, Lowe's, & Ace's) donate more to Republicans. Aside from locally owned small businesses, any idea where else to go?

    Every company I've looked up so far donates pretty evenly split to both parties, usually slightly favoring the Republicans, including the ones you listed. The only company I've found that is heavily Democrat is Honda. Sorry, that doesn't answer your question, but the point I was making is that they are funding both parties. What does that tell you? That they don't really care who is in charge. They only care that they have influence over whoever is in charge.
