Tell Sen. McConnell: Return Amgen PAC and lobbyist donations

After negotiating a fiscal cliff deal that provided a $500 million dollar giveaway to Amgen, you must return all PAC and lobbyist donations from the company to your campaign.

Why is this important?

Hunter Bates, a longtime aide to Sen. Mitch McConnell, donated $3,000 to McConnell’s campaign in December while he was on contract with pharmaceutical giant Amgen to lobby on “fiscal cliff issues,” according to recently released FEC reports.

Soon after, Amgen received a $500 million dollar windfall in the fiscal cliff deal that was negotiated by Sen. McConnell.

We are calling on Sen. McConnell to return all donations from Amgen and its lobbyists. We cannot let corporations win sweetheart deals with campaign donations.
