Along with contributing directly to political campaigns and other efforts to support particular candidates, California’s top oligarchs and their allies make significant donations to other political action committees (PACs). These PACs often then use those funds to contribute to various political campaigns.
Listed below are the major contributions ($100K+) made by AbbVie to PACs that have contributed to current state-level elected officials, as well as all $10K+ contributions made to current state-level elected officials. Although these contributions were not made directly by AbbVie to the elected official, they reflect potential indirect financial ties that can also result in political influence.
