Issue Position: Campaign Contributions

Issue Position

Chuck Stadler for Congress believes in helping the middle class, small business, and low income people. Wal-mart comes into small towns and cities and hurts small businesses, they destroy the economy for the people. Walmart Corporation is worth more than 497 billion dollars.

From the 2000 election cycle through the 2014 cycle, the Waltons and the Wal-Mart PAC spent nearly $18 million in federal elections.

More than $13.50 million went to GOP candidates and committees.

Together, the Waltons and the Wal-Mart PAC have given more than$13.50 million- 83% of their contributions--to Republican candidates and committees. In contrast, Democrats have been given less than 17% of that amount. Over this time period 83% of the Waltons' contributions went to Republicans, including their contributions to super PACs. The Walton's who own wal-mart have been able to hide most contribution to the Republicans from the people and the media because they do not by law have to disclose this information.

Why this is a problem

The Waltons are seizing this opportunity to push a corporatization and privatization agenda of schools and are doing so in a way that is unaccountable to students, parents, teachers, and communities that will never have as much money as they do. Meanwhile, many parents who work at Wal-mart have to juggle multiple jobs, or make decisions about whether to pay rent or put food on the table.

Where does Republican Candice Miller stand in Campaign Contributions from the Waltons & Wal-mart super Pac money, believe me she does have her share but, she does not have to disclose this information by law. Candice Miller has only voted Tax breaks for Corporations.
