NYT: Bill Gates donated $50 million to an organization backing Kamala Harris.
The Times writes that Gates told friends he’s donated about $50 million to a 501(c)(4) “dark money” organization, Future Forward USA Action. It’s the nonprofit arm of what the Times previously described as “The biggest super PAC in American politics.”
Gates didn’t endorse Harris when asked, and is quoted saying:
I support candidates who demonstrate a clear commitment to improving health care, reducing poverty and fighting climate change in the U.S. and around the world.
I have a long history of working with leaders across the political spectrum, but this election is different, with unprecedented significance for Americans and the most vulnerable people around the world.
