LYNXMPEH0P0B6_L.jpg Inc's Google said on Monday that it will not make any kind of contributions from its political action committee during this election cycle to any Congress member who actually voted against the basic certifying of the results of the presidential election.

Earlier this month, following the actual violent storming of the U.S. Capitol, the tech giant which is google had actually paused all the political contributions to reassess its policies toward political contribution.

then following that review, the NetPAC board has actually decided that it will not really be making any contributions this cycle to any member of Congress who voted against certification of the election results," a Google representative said in a statement.

Hundreds of former President Donald Trump's supporters stormed the halls of Congress on Jan. 6 in a bid to overturn his election defeat, battling police in the hallways and delaying the certification of President Joe Biden's victory for hours.

Concerning the incident, the republicans who are present in the Congress really faced alot of blowback from the several corporate firms who actually paused various campaign donations and also said they were reviewing their policies.

Amazon.com Inc (NASDAQ:AMZN), AT&T Inc (NYSE:T), Comcast Corp (NASDAQ:CMCSA), Verizon Communications Inc (NYSE:VZ) are all ammong the many big companies who have made some threats to actually throttle the fundraising resources for Republicans.

AT&T and the Comcast, for example, they are actually among the biggest corporate donors that are present in Washington.
