Political Factoid
The U.S. Chamber of Commerce claims
that it represents more than three million
businesses but it has only about 300,000
members.*
- Almost half of its $140 million in contributions in
2008 came from just 45 donors.
- Many of those large donations coincided with
lobbying or political campaigns that potentially
affected those 45 donors.
*Only 10% are members.
